Due to my recent new knowledge of the wonderful 'onUpdateAvailable' chrome api event (thanks @uecasm) it should now be possible to rollout automatic updates in a non-catastrophic fashion.

The work for this is mostly done, but unfortunately it will take one more (catastrophic) update to get everybody onto a version that supports the onUpdateAvailable event.

Once on this new release (v7.x), then a subsequent available update will trigger a popup informing users of the incoming update, and offering them an option to save a backup of their tabs before continuing.

It will also automatically save a copy of the current tab session in the Session History view to help users recover tabs should anything go wrong during the update that causes tabs to disappear permanently.

Any update on when we will get the big chrome store update? I'm getting tired of all my tabs loading back in whenever I relaunch chrome because I'm using a developer mode extension, I can't go back to 'stock' as I'm a heavy youtube user so having to clear out the cookies costs a lot of time per day.
