I haven't used Pushbullet in depth but on first glance it doesn't seem like a browser extension at all. It looks more like a standalone chat app that happens to be running in the browser. It has nothing to do with enhancing the browsing experience, except for a share-link feature? Google might not want to make Chrome the browser into an OS. If i were Google i would also be skeptical when such standalone apps wants to read my browser cookies or access my http://localhost http://localhost. Actually i think cookies is the violating permission here.
