Does it sync?

Current implementation uses the local chrome storage api (chrome.storage.local). Could probably swap that out for the sync api (chrome.storage.sync). Haven't tried that yet though https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/storage#type-Storage...

I guess it should do both (despite more complications), although I'm a FF guy so not the target.

switching to sync storage is very easy as all api calls should be identical. just remember that the maximum size for stored objects is lower in sync storage (only 8mb I believe)

Updated to the sync api, says it could take up to an hour to publish.

Thank you. I'll try it.
