Export links of all extensions crashes the browser

@dynamix Looks like it is a bug with Vivaldi, but it is easy enough to work around in this case.
I submitted a pull request on the extension's GitHub page, so hopefully the developer only needs to merge the changes and publish them to the store (takes a few days for published changes to be accepted and go live).

As for the bug, it looks like calling
window.close()
in an extension action popup causes Vivaldi to close everything. Not sure if it is a crash or just all the windows closing.If you search how to close an extension action popup on StackOverflow, they tell you to use
window.close()
, so I can imagine there are quite a few extensions out there that are affected by this bug.I will submit a bug report later once I get a chance to do a bit more testing.

@dynamix I saw Nomadic pull on GH. Maybe could be useful to add this on the VB @DoctorG

@Hadden89 Yep, it is an option. If you load it as an unpacked extension, select the
/export-all-extensions/src
folder as the directory. -
@nomadic From what I've experienced, it's a crash, because there's a crash dump (which I submitted with my bug report).

Done.

@DoctorG Should I submit a separate bug report that is only about the
window.close()
behavior in popups or is the current report enough?The extension developer merged my changes, so the extension will soon work properly in Vivaldi.

@nomadic The chrome store has the fixed version as of today. I tested it and it works, thanks for your patch

Please report as extra issue to Vivaldi bug tracker. If the reported are related to each other, the Vivaldi devs will link them.
