URL with activate param is not giving focus to the plugin in Chrome

[ryestew]

Given this URL:
https://remix.ethereum.org/#activate=defender-deploy

The plugin is activated but not given the focus.
In the plugin manager, the plugin is not shown as active.

@MCarlomagno it seems like i can only do those two tests if it's from the main source repo. cause i can't use defender-deploy profile name in #actiavate= param, cause this name already exists in plugin list.

i tried changing the identifier (defender-deploo) in codebase then deploying it to netlify and adding the plugin locally from Remix IDE then trial and error goes on but seems like: direct URL activation works only for those listed plugins, not for locally added plugins. realoading webpage removes locally added plugins.

commands i frequently used:
pnpm prepare && pnpm check && pnpm build && pnpm preview
netlify unlink && netlify init && netlify open

can you describe with proper approach in details for testing?
