Splitting this as a separate bug from issue 794286 (some original discussion happened there).
Probably the way to go is to add a new chrome.developerPrivate API method to get the size for a specific extension and call that when a details page is shown in the UI.
This bug requires manual review: M64 has already been promoted to the beta branch, so this requires manual review

This seems like a fairly large change? and seems just like just landed in Canary over the weekend. Can you please confirm if it's safe, well tested and verified?
> Can you please confirm if it's safe?
Yes, should be fairly safe. This change adds a new getExtensionSize() method in chrome.developerPrivate API, which is only used by the new MD Extensions UI. So it is unlikely it could cause any issues unrelated to MD Extensions.
> Well tested and verified
The change is tested manually and verified. See attached screenshot.
