Chromium bugs we're tracking

Different keydown event behavior between Windows and OS X
48107

Keydown event under Windows doesn’t return correct keyIdentifier for non-US keyboard layout.

Add the ability to manipulate the clipboard from content scripts or background pages
(this is required so we can implement “yy”, to yank the current page’s URL to the clipboard)

NOTE This has been resolved, finally. We can implement yy more cleanly than we do today, and we can implement “open new tab with contents of clipboard”.

Content scripts on view-source: pages

Javascript: initKeyboardEvent has no effect
It may be possible to trigger the native find dialog programmatically by using something like
event=document.createEvent(“KeyboardEvent”);
event.initKeyboardEvent(“keydown”, true, true, null, “U+0046”, 0, “accel”); // 046 is F; accel = meta
document.body.dispatchEvent(event);

However, I can’t run this experiment because event.metaKey is always false, I believe because of this bug:

Simulated links made from content scripts trigger the popup blocker. This is the root cause of #26.

When restoring tabs, we don’t preserve Chrome’s tab order or history. Here is a feature request for Chrome to give us an API to hook into their tab reopening system, which would solve both issues for us.

Content scripts don’t run on non-html (images). Issue #99.

Implement extensions APIs to execute browser commands. Would be nice if they exposed the ability do a native Restore Tab, to close the ‘save password’ or Download box, etc. (I.e. A more general form of the initKeyboardEvent issue.)
28084

Ability to add global keyboard shortcuts (without using a content script). Right now Previous / Next Tab does not work if the content scripts haven’t loaded, which is annoying.

Content scripts are unable to access window.frames[i].

Content scripts do not have access to a page’s iframes. This would probably make support for iframes easier:

execCommand(“Copy”) broken within content scripts

An API to access a user’s search engines, so we can implement the “keyword”[tab] search UX that Chrome’s omnibar offers.
