Sorry for late response.

After I tested it, it did have such issue. Here is my steps to reproduce

  1. Click New Tab buttons for at least 20 times. So you will have 20+ tabs.
  2. Right click on leftmost tab.
  3. Select Close Tabs to The Right, closing all tabs except the leftmost one.

You should see, some or even all tabs still in place.

The cause is the *Race Condition*.

The patch does fix the issue, it ensures only one tab is created by this 
extension, however there is another issue, the created tab is also closed by 
Chrome since it's at right to the leftmost tab. Therefore, once tabs are 
closed, there is only one tab left which is the leftmost one. If you continue 
to close the only left tab, Chrome quits.

I made some changes by adding a timer to check the situation. It should be sort 
of fieed in version 0.4 and it is available on Web Store.

By the way, this project has been moved to GitHub:
