About Hard Pin

By default in chrome, pinned tabs can be closed by pressing ctrl+W. This is undesirable for those who want to keep pinned tabs. This extension automatically reopens a tab if a pinned tab is closed. (unpinned tabs are unaffected.) No need to worry about accidentally closing a pinned tab!
