I can only PARTLY answer my own question: in a Chrome window opened
via open.window() you can right-click on the title bar and select
"open in tab". this returns the window to traditional form and exposes
the extensions bar. This is an extra step and we'd still love to see
if extensions bar can be made visible by default from window.open().
