How to make Chrome show beginning and end of long URLs in the URL bar

Question

I've been trying to find a Chrome extension that would show the beginning (www.domain.com/...) and ending (someFileorPage.html) part of a URL, in the omni-bar, truncating the middle part if the URL's too long to fit.

The beginning and ending parts usually provide the most pertinent information, and I thought it'd be useful to be able to see them without clicking and scrolling through the text. How can I get Chrome to display long URLs like this?

Go to chrome://flags/#origin-chip-in-omnibox and set it to Disabled.
