All, I have placed a new version of the extension (suffixed _0.3) at https://github.com/ANithian/url_edit_extension/downloads. A few of the bugs resolved: 1) Switching to a tab in a new window and clicking on the extension wasn't loading the right URL 2) Complex SOLR URLs (ironic as this was the purpose) weren't being handled properly. I had to ditch the 3rd party URL parser in favor of my own which should better handle these complex parameters. 3) Replaced the edit box of the parameter value from a single line textbox to a multiple line textarea. This doesn't solve the "tab" to edit the next row but it helps a bit in that problem.
Please keep submitting issues as you encounter them and I'll address them as best as possible. I hope that this helps everyone! Thanks!
