Re: Extension rejected by Chrome Store

[Giorgio Maone]

Hi Libor,

yes, that's correct: webNavigation is used only in the Firefox code
branch of DocStartInjection, and therefore its permission can be removed
from the manifest for the Chromium version.

There was no recent change, though, therefore I suppose Google's
verification system has been tightened somehow.

Best,
