I'm writing an extension that uses the toolstrip mole (chrome.toolstrip.expand/collapse) functionality to pop up on certain pages. The user can also minimize/expand it on demand on those pages.
Since toolstrips are per window, and not per tab, I need to keep a good amount of state in the background page, and coordinate between the background page and the toolstrip quite a bit. For example, if the user moves from a tab where the toolstrip is showing to one where it's not, the background page needs to tell the toolstrip to collapse itself, and vice-versa. Letting the user also collapse and expand means that the background page needs to know that too. All this gets fairly complicated and bug-prone, and it seems that my extension will not be the only one to have this use case of per-tab toolstrip state. Would the Chrome extensions team consider adding support for this to the API? I could come up with a more defined proposal.
