Comment(by mikeperry):

 Also, my brother pointed out that the chrome.google.com extension gallery
 is exempt from content script injection, for abuse concerns. Similar
 exemptions apply to other about: urls.

 This means that we will have to ensure that Web Request will allow us to
 block all requests to this page, and to special about: urls, so that we
 can display a confirmation dialog to the user before they are (forcibly)
 navigated to them to be fingerprinted.
