Well with 4.0.222.12 there's no more bug. window.close() wasn't working but now it's ok. The popup now open and immediately close to open a tab if I have no messages in gmail, that's the better management I can have right now.
You can test it here: http://dev.jeremyselier.com/chrome-extensions/gmail-checker-2.crx The latest version also include a cool design for the popup, this is really nice!
