I recently went to switch from my corp profile to my personal profile on my work computer. When doing so, I was prompted to provide my password for my personal profile (expected). However, while doing to, a new tab opened and took focus to notify me of an updated Chrome extension (AdBlockPlus). Luckily I caught myself from continuing to type my password, but presumably any installed Chrome extension in focus could capture my keystrokes, right? If so, is there some way that we can prevent updated extension tabs from taking focus while the user is interacting with a page?
