If I understand this correctly, the problem you are describing is that you use Pushbullet, which looks like it it forwards text messages around between devices, and you are wondering if the Pushbullet extension should remain logged in if you are being prompted to log back into your google account. For example, if you were to visit passwords.google.com and be asked for your password? 

I'm going to ask rdevlin.cronin@ to confirm this, but I don't think extension sessions are going to be tied to google.com login. Please clarify I didn't understand the issue correctly.

We're probably not going to change anything in this respect.  There are a lot of ways that users can tweak settings in order to get extensions where they want them (and make sure they don't have them when they don't want them).  For instance, extensions are tied to a chrome profile, so you can make multiple profiles with different extension configurations.  You also have the choice of whether or not to sync extensions, so you can choose if you want extensions only on a certain machine or across all devices with the signed-in profile.  You can toggle whether or not the extension is allowed to run incognito, and use incognito mode when you don't certain extensions running (as a sort of light-weight second profile).  And, of course, if you don't want a given extension, you can always remove it from chrome://extensions or the extensions action bar.

Of course, these tools can't solve every use case, but trying to do that would result in too much complexity for Chromium and users. :)

I am using different extensions with several profiles. Anyone that uses my pc can swap the the browser profile and use different extensions. That is quite nice. 


My problem is that Chrome correctly asks me to login every now and then and my extensions do not purge sessions accordingly. Sometimes, my grandpa uses my browser or a browser where i was on and gets to see messages that were not meant for him.


I removed Pushbullet, i really think they screwed up really hard with this but i still think chrome extension authentication should be tied to browser login or else profiles won't ever work as safe user spaces.
