Shortcut to return to the page from which you opened the current tab.
Motivation: you have a list of search results. You opened the first 5 in new tabs and closed the results list. Now you read the 5 top results, but they do not answer your question so you want to go back to the search page.
Without this extension, you would need to search your history or spam undo close tab.
This extension conveniently solves the problem by taking you straight back to the origin page, re-opening it if necessary.
You can even use it recursively on tabs opened by tab origin; the extension tracks the history.
I suggest the shortcut is cmd/ctrl-shift-u, set from the bottom of Extensions page.
When origin information is unavailable for a tab a "N/A" badge is shown.

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
