Can't whitelist from a popup

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Get a page that opens a popup, like a disqus login thing.
2. Open the popup, which should open or redirect to a domain not whitelisted 
and not listed in the parent's scriptno popup.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I should be able to whitelist from a popup just like from a normal window.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Latest ScriptNo on Windows XP Chrome 21 Dev.

Please provide any additional information below.

A possible resolution is to make the browser action a page action instead so it 
works in popups (I like this idea best since the button action is already 
closely related to the current page so it fits with the concept of a page 
action).

Another possible resolution is to implement common actions in the browser 
context menu so common actions can be taken from there.

It'd be great if you could whitelist from the right-click menu within the 
window, too.

Actually that would be an acceptable workaround for me.  Adblock does that.
