Hey Matt,
I like this new model, it's nice and simple.
One thought: if chrome scripts were actual html pages, they could easily
embed an NPAPI plugin for native code. It could have other uses too, for
example we could allow the user to reveal this page to see settings, or
debug information.

Ok, I like this. The html of the chrome script is for developer/debug stuff,
not for end users. Also good for easter eggs :)
How should they be able to access that? about:extensionID ?
chrome-extension://extension-id ?

Yes, I think we should provide a standard way for extensions to provide a
settings UI, accessible from the management UI (settings.html, perhaps).

To expand on Peter's comment, we're more focused on specific features than

channel as soon as it's got enough APIs to be broadly useful.

This is very cool, Jack. I l really like the polish of the UI, and in the
