The popup window should remain open in the old tab even after switching to a new tab. This is important when the popup window is used to open a source via a button. Users should not have to restart the process every time they switch tabs.

„There is no way to keep the popup open after the user has clicked away.“

Maybe using a modal for the extensions popup or just for the report?
