The allow/deny prompt should clearly state which domain attempts to register a SW. Example: I visit "website.com" which has an embedded youtube video on it. Both the website and youtube (via its iframe) attempt to register a SW, yet the extension only asks "allow or deny THIS worker?" -- I would like to block the youtube SW (which is a useless resource hog) but allow the website.com one. Thanks

Worked for me! (had an issue with a site whose service-worker was somehow outdated/not-updating, and this was the only thing that fixed the issue for me, so I could use the latest version of the site's/webapp's code)

Nice idea, but I get WAY TOO MANY repeated prompts on sites I've already white-listed (GMail, etc). Please allow automatic acceptance for all requests from sites that have already been white-listed.

As someone who hates big G et al. trying to make browsers a vehicle for sh*tty "apps", this helps me a lot. However, it would be great if there was an option to simply block SWs without a confirmation prompt.
