Have not read the code nor do I know about the Chrome api, but maybe those options will be passed directly to the API and he just wanted to avoid manually converting from snake case to camel case.
If that is the case, I personally would leave it as it is as it follows the API and people who are familiar with the API would have an easier time working with it. However, if the goal is to completely abstract that, then having them in snake case would be better.
It depends on the viewpoint.
