Steps to reproduce issue:
Taking a case of gmail acces. After logging-in, i enable autorefresh when my 
active 
view is Inbox folder. The autorefresh works as long as the user doesn't 
navigate away 
from the page. The reason, as far as i understand is that, when we enable 
autoreloader it refreshes for the complete URL 
(mail.google.com/mail/?shav=1#inbox). 
When i check for mail in some label i have created, the URL changes to 
mail.google.com/mail/?shav=1/label/<labelName>. This is treated as a new page 
and 
hence autoreloader does not work.
There should be option to specify pattern that would match the domain name and 
all 
pages under the domain will get reloaded. This is especially useful when using 
webmail in office work environment, where the base URL stays the same. Only the 
navigation part changes.
I am using version 0.4 of chromereload with Chrome 5.0.3b

This is kind of tricky to get right. For example, I can imagine scenarios where 
you are 
reloading a News headlines-type page, navigate to a story with embedded video 
and leave 
it on that page. Most people don't want the video to be repeatedly loaded.

(Note that GMail has built in functionality to make reloading its page required)
