This looks slick and useful, how do you feel it compares to newly (-ish) added Chrome tab search widget?

The readme in the repo does a good job of explaining the privacy implications, I was wondering if there is some to narrow either the requested permissions (can read and modify data on all pages) and the fact it talks to the network? Even if currently seemingly innocuous, the combination is a big risk that might be unnecessary for most (all?) of the functionality.

The newly added Chrome tab search widget definitely makes it easier to search and switch tabs, but it is still very much limited to just active tabs.

UnTab can search through tabs, history, bookmarks (as long as permission is given), and can also help in performing common browser actions quickly without leaving the keyboard. Along with this, the Plugins API that I'm building for UnTab is fairly powerful at this stage and would allow the community to add other useful actions and tools to the extension that I couldn't think of on my own.

Yes, I am trying to reduce the requested permissions to the point where the user allows the necessary permissions for some feature of UnTab to run if they need it.

"can read and modify data on all pages" particularly cannot be removed as that is what allows UnTab search interface to show up on the pages. network communication is again mainly for showing instant answers from DuckDuckGo searches which can be enabled if user needs it.

Will keep an eye out on other permissions if they can be minimized.
