Creator here. A check automatically runs every hour, and if there are any changes detected, a badge appears over the extension icon. I decided anything more than that was too invasive.

Indeed, periodic checks with a well-thought-out interval do make sense. Well done!

It would be much better to at least have the option to automatically disable an extension with changed ownership instead.

The majority of owner changes are going to be malicious, so the action taken should account for that.

Are extensions allowed to disable other extensions? That seems like it would be a poor design. If the feature was part of the browser, then sure, but not as an extension.
