I believe the only place you can access the DOM window of a page from
an extension is a content script...
My way of dealing with a somewhat similar situation is that I have a
content script which opens a port to the background page using, with
its name set to the window name
chrome.extension.connect({name: window.name})
And then in the background page you can make an onConnect listener
when has access to the port, so you can port.tab.id, as well as
port.name, and you can correlate what you need accordingly.
