This could have happened as plugins themselves are run as separate process. A small widget or a program which runs outside of the browser that works the same way as the task manager for google chrome would be useful in this scenario as you could just fire up the second program to identify and kill the troubling process, just a thought.

Google Chrome Froze
After using Google chrome [BETA] for couple of days, the much hyped sandboxing failed today for me. While browsing a site with flash plugin, the browser froze, it was unresponsive. Their feature of being able to close bad tabs failed as I was not able to get the Task manager from the browser itself. I opened up Task manager to see bunch of chrome.exe processes. I assumed the one which takes up the maximum memory to be the actual browser itself and the rest as tabs and started killing each one of them until the browser is responsive again, but by that time I have lost all the other tabs I was browsing.
