Quickest way to debug Chrome Extension popup scripts

Question

I have the Chrome Apps and Extensions developer tool installed to debug my Chrome Extension. However, to debug the popup script running in the popup window, you have to perform the following steps:

1. Refresh the Chrome Extension on the Extensions page
2. Right click the icon next to the url bar
3. Select "Inspect Popup"
4. Set breakpoints

The real annoying part about this is the popup window has to be re-opened every time a change happens. Debugging background scripts I don't have as much of a problem with, because the background script debug page stays open after you refresh the chrome extension. But for popup scripts, the popup window along with the popup debug page keeps closing and it becomes a really tedious, repetitive task to re-open it when debugging a lot. Is there no other way to more easily start debugging Chrome Extensions popup scripts?
