The Google Chrome developer team has stated that this feature will not be added in a feature request:
The philosophy for browser and page action popups is that they must be triggered by user action.
An alternative would be to open the Popup.html file in a new tab using the following code or something similar
Note: Needs to be called from background page and requires the "tabs" permission
// Opens Popup.html in new tab
chrome.tabs.create({'url': chrome.extension.getURL('popup.html')}, function(tab) {
// Tab opened.
});
