MVP (Section 3)

Description

Currently, the app only maintains a single reference to the current page under the currentURL property. This reference is a string, with no state regarding any redirects along the way. We want to persist and maintain the order of the entire Web Navigation lifecycle.

Edit: it's actually looking more like we will need to abandon the Web Navigation API, and parse the data from Web Requests. The Web Navigation API does not provide any information regarding status codes or even update it's url property after a redirect.

Acceptance criteria

Capture all Web Navigation events and send the data along with Tab information.
