I have an application which needs to change the page of the current visible tab in Chrome.

My application controls what is shown in the browser.

Ideas I had were an extension which would communicate with my app and as a last resort - send keys.

Is there anything else I need to consider and would an extension be able to achieve this?

PS. This is not for a dodgy spyware app, as much as it may sound like it is!

I have seen this question: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/147929/c-sending-messages-to-google-chrome-from-c-application. This does not cover the case of changing the current tab.
