1. Timeout should be removed on destroy and also before creating a new one (line 141 `menuBuilder.js`): [EGO Review Guidelines: Timeout](https://gjs.guide/extensions/review-guidelines/review-guidelines.html#remove-main-loop-sources) 2. Don't use sync spawn since that can freeze the shell process (line 146 `browserManager.js`): [GJS Guide: Subprocesses](https://gjs.guide/guides/gio/subprocesses.html#complete-examples) 3. Please remove line 96-128 `extension.js`. They are unnecessary. Also, remove the try and catch wrapper from enable and disable. Not needed really. If the code errors out, the logs will have the exact backtrace.
