Is there a way to add MRU tab selection via CTRL+TAB to Google Chrome?

Solution
Yes, there is a perfectly working solution. This extension Tab Thumbnails Switcher can redefine Ctrl+Tab and Ctrl+Shift+Tab to select tabs in MRU order the same way you swich between programs with Alt+Tab in Windows.
The best part is that the tab selector box is implemented natively, so it doesn't need to inject javascript on each tab for it to work. It works reliably on all tabs.
There's also a demonstrative video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2HC7_EI8db4
Problem
I haven't been able to find an extension or built-in way to get this functionality. I have seen a couple of hacks on the web, but none that work properly. Eg this standalone application: https://github.com/acemtp/chrome_mru
