Is Ctrl+Tab MRU safe?

Medium risk

Ctrl+Tab MRU inserts current-window tab titles and tab IDs into the active webpage DOM.

When you use its tab-switching command, Ctrl+Tab MRU builds an on-page menu from the tabs in the current browser window. That menu includes each tab's title or URL fallback, favicon, and tab ID as regular DOM elements on the active page, so scripts on that page can inspect those values while the overlay is displayed.
