Research direction

No source file or test is identified. Start by reproducing the issue in Chrome on Windows with MetaMask 10.11.3: open the Expanded view, leave it in the background for several hours, and check whether it closes. Done means identifying why the tab closes and preventing the unexpected closure, with a regression test if the relevant test location is found.
