Have to reapply dimmer on every page load, page refresh and new tab, etc. #2

Hi, this looks like it's just what I was looking for in that it dims the screen nicely if I click on any link or refresh the page it turns off and I have to reapply it... which is both frustrating and painful... flashes of white where there was once grey.

Is this the desired effect?

Hi, no it's not desired. In the first release I tried to overcome this issue but I wasn't able to find a way that doesn't require a permission. I will have a look at it again today and let you know :)

It turns out there is no way to execute a script inside a tab after a page reload (without a special permission). I will implement this and bump the major version but the extension will require 'Read/write all websites' permission from now on :/
