To be fair, if they wanted to be hostile towards ads blocking extensions in general they would have made it really hard or impossible to develop them in the first place; or wouldn't even allow them to be hosted on Google extensions website. To my last count they currently have 5 ad blocking extensions on Google extensions gallery. One of the is the second most downloaded Chrome Extension. Generally speaking Google has done so much with Chrome browser in such a short time, I don't mind giving them the benefit of doubt that they didn't get around fixing or implementing the said bug/feature.
