Thanks!

- I like the naming of receive keys. (Wish I could figure out how to retrieve a receive key by name at a later time.)
 - Was not clear if I had to save the initial randomness to restore a wallet or if it can be regenerated from the password.
 - Not clear what server it is using to handle the blockchain.
 - Send is taking a while - I think because I'm playing with tiny amounts of coin. Wish I could add a miner fee to speed things up.

If you right-click on the extension icon and click "Options", it should open up a tab that addresses these. Perhaps I should also add a way of opening the Options page from the popup?

The initial randomness (the seed) is crypto-random, and optionally encrypted with AES using a passphrase, so yes, you need both the characters you see and the password (you can see them again in the Seed tab of the Options page).
