been playing around with the Linux Chrome extension.

i thought we were supposed to be able to construct and send tx's thru it alone w/o going to mytrezor.com?  i couldn't figure out any other way to do this than to go to mytrezor.com.

anyone else play with it?

is there any way to get the xpub off the Trezor and onto Mycelium by using the extension?

You configure it with the extension and when you use Mycelium just plug it in and select the accounts tab and add another account and select the hardware wallet option. (I don't think it shows the xpub but it does show qr codes for your addresses just like another other HD account)

so in other words, the extension is just for configuration purposes only?  it also forced me to go to myTrezor.com to add a password.  is that normal?
I know the extension was made in a way that configuration can occur without mytrezor.com (In fact you can do it all while your computer is offline if you were so inclined) but the extension is also used for mytrezor.com wallet features for those who want it. I don't remember the password part but that is easily spoofed with just entering a simple fake password. (Just don't use the addresses that it generates of course). For computer usage I use Electrum and Mycelium on phone. Both can share the same trezor.
