Trying Windows 10, installed Chrome and connected to my account. TabFern window opens outside of the screen - far outside of the left side of the screen and only the "close window" button is visible.

When TabFern window opens, it should check that it is not positioned outside of screen.

It is fixable with Alt-Space, m, and use cursors to move it back to visible screen space.

Indeed - and related to #111. As a shortcut, if you double-click the TF extension icon in the address bar, it will bring the TF window back to the window you're in.

Turns out extensions can use system.display, not just apps. I found this example (SO). Therefore, it should be possible to implement this.

I highly suggest using WindowManager. It's a great tool for setting windows position and size. It works with TabFern window, I'm able to place it on the exact place it's best confortable to look at. When I get any other window over any of browser's window, instead of looking for it on TaskBar, I just use TabFern to bring it back.
