Paste Zone
Description from store

This extension is intended to ease the use of middle-click pasting on Linux. It adds a paste button to your toolbar. When you click on it, a small box pops up, and you can middle click there to navigate to whatever URL you have on your X11 PRIMARY clipboard. You don't need to clear the URL box before pasting on this popup.

You can also paste into the text-box in this popup, if you want an empty URL bar so you can edit your URL before navigating there.

Pasting outside the text-box doesn't work on Windows, becuase Windows doesn't have middle-click to paste.

Related extensions to make middle-click paste easier for Linux users:

* For search engines, I've found Universal Search & IE8 Accelerators (not written by me) to be quite useful https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hmcgifbelcmjecmkapejifljephjabjd

* If you want to make clearing individual form fields easy, see my Clear Field extension at https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/gcpinedmnlkjiiogojgmabcglmnhfdhc
