I really, really enjoy this extension. Everything has a command palette these days, and for good reason. They increase productivity quite drastically. This one functions *almost* exactly how I would have liked.

My main use is for switching tabs faster since I usually know their title. However, this extension does not automatically highlight the top result, so you must use the mouse or the arrow keys to drop down to the first selection. It also doesn't highlight anything if there is only 1 result. Ideally, I'd like to open the palette, search my tab and have the first item *always* be highlighted. If it's not the one I want, *then* I can use the arrow keys to find the one, but otherwise, then I can just hit *enter/return* and be on my way. This would easily make this a 5-star extension in my opinion.

Cool extension!

Main reason I was looking for a command pallette was to easily open new windows from various chrome profiles (I have 3x chrome profiles, and I'd love to be able to type eg the name of a profile in the command pallete and have an option to open a new window with that profile, switch to last window with that profile etc)

Let me know if there's a repo for this plugin and I'll write the code myself + make a pull request with this feature :)

Amazing, I've been needing that kind of extension for a long time! 5 stars!!!

Just a few remarks :
- Would it be possible on the future to make the palette appearance speed customizable? For me it is a bit slow to appear
- when i open the palette, and change tab with key bindings (ctrl+page up/down). The palette does not follow my navigation to the newly opened tab. This is not too problematic, and maybe it's not fixable like that. But when changing tab with keybindings, maybe it would be possible to at least close the palette on the previous tab? Like that if I come back 30min after to that tab, the palette is not here anymore!

This are not really problems I want to highlight, but more remarks that can help to make your extension even better.

Thank you for making my days easier!
