Unfortunately there is currently no way to keep the popup open once you focus out of it. This is by design.

If you would like to always show something while interacting with the page, perhaps the experimental Info bars or even Desktop Notifications would work?

Hope that helped!

The only way to keep it open is to right click over the extension icon (button) and select "Inspect popup" the extension popup then show up and remain open but of course the debugger window show and this not a fix obviously still it will maybe inspire a hack... if someone is skilled enough and share the solution with all of us.
