Chrome doesn’t:
- Expose proxy settings through the ui (they’re set via environment variables). So if I want to change them, I have to go to the cli to set env vars, then restart chrome.
Display link urls in the status bar when I hover over links.Apparently it does this. Don’t know what I was smoking.- Let me middle click in the body of the page to load a new url (this is fixed upstream, but not in the versions I’m running).
- Allow css ad blocking (http://www.floppymoose.com/).
- I have to add a trailing slash to the end of everything so it doesn’t try to do a web search for whatever I type.
- Update: Doesn’t let you hit ‘/’ to start searching.
- Update: When searching doesn’t let you hit enter when matching a link to go to that link.
- Update: It seems to take its sweet time sometimes doing what appears to be a dns lookup on the proxy. TTLs anyone?
- Update: Selected text isn’t automatically the desired search text when opening the search box.
- Update: Can’t shift delete mistyped urls in the omnibox.
Update: Chrome automatically selects text when the omnibox gains focus, clobbering anything I had in my clipboard. Something similar happens with the find field, but it’s that whatever I had in the clipboard goes away completely.- Update: Can’t control click and drag to select multiple rows of a single column in an html table.
- Update: When selecting space delimited text, pressing delete/backspace will actually delete more than is actually selected.
- Update: Backspace no longer goes to the previous page.
