A browser action that will create a tab with the Music Beta Web App if none is already opened in the current browser window and Play/Pause it if it's there.

When Music Beta is already available in the same browser instance/profile (which may be in another window) as the browser action that is clicked on, then a play/pause event is sent to the Web App to start playing if it was in pause mode, or to pause if it was in play mode.

The icon shows a little play symbol (▷) in the top half when the Web App is ready to play, and a pause symbol (◫) when it is currently playing. The Music Beta icon is displayed naked otherwise.

The omnibox command prefix mc (for Music Controller) followed by or gives access to four commands 1) Skip (sk), 2) Restart (rs) 3) PlayPause (pp) and 4) Foreground (fg) to bring the Web App tab to the foreground. These commands are available in the suggest menu.

Not sure if this is only me, but I can use the control to stop the music, but it does not work to start it back up. I have to go back into the tab and click play from there. Love the app and it used to work both-ways all the time. Not sure when it stopped resuming music, but it has been many months, for sure.

The icon turns the music off, or it turns the music on, and that's it. Which is exactly what I wanted. Great extension!
