I'd just like to second this. I'm an avid user if quickrestart for firefox (https:// addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3559) and I use it all the time. When developing extensions for chrome it would be nice to be able to restart the browser with a single click so you can see what happens at browser initialization. I realize that the Chrome extension are built differently firefox ones, and don't require a restart to see changes when you have made changes to the code (just open a new tab, and the new toolstrip code should be used), but when editing the background page, or similar "global" file, is would be really handy to be able to restart Chrome with a single click.
I realise this is beyond the scope of what current extensions can do. But I'd settle for a developer flag that added a button to the UI if enabling this sort of functionality was not going to be allowed.
