The infobar appears in the environment of the proper tab, but the text is empty. [Test Case] - have more than one tab opened (with blank pages), - in one of the tabs, go to a website that is supported by webapps (e.g. Twitter), - immediately after (BEFORE the website loads), switch to the other tab (Ctrl+Tab), - wait a bit for the original website to complete loading, - when one comes back on the loaded tab, an infobar should have popup but with NO text on it, [Regression Risks] The code deals with the infobar that the user sees when a WebApp is about to be installed or needs authorization. A malfunction might prevent WebApps from being installed or no installation message could be displayed. Technical: -------------- There is a race condition in the infobar javascript that incorrectly uses a chrome.extension.getSelected function to get its current tab is a ask the background page for its text (since the infobar cannot receive init() data and has to get it from somewhere). The tab request is asynchronous hence the timing sensitivity of the operation.
