Why would they not like this? You still need to open up gmail.com. This is pretty much like you scraping google search results.

Historically extensions for Gmail have often been problematic. A lot of people install them and then forget about them, and if something changes, they blame Gmail and there's errors that can't be reproduced. Plus there's the whole security issue of giving third party code access to your mails.
