Very glad to see someone looking at the issues!

To explain, my CSS includes
font-family: fixedsys, consolas, monospace;
... and Chrome doesn't use Fixedsys, but jumps to Consolas instead.
Firefox finds Fixedsys fine. Apparently it being a system font
confuses Chrome? (I also can't locate the font when trying to adjust
my Chrome monospace default font in the options.)

I can't get this set up properly -- did you try it, could you please
guide me through the steps? When I use a shortcut, then setting up a
file extension association and then opening the associated file will
make Vista route to the main program (Chrome, not Chrome App).
Dragging the source file over the shortcut shows somewhat better
behavior, but I didn't fully explore that route as it wouldn't be a
solution in the first place (as I just want to double click my text
files to edit).
My goal is:
- On Windows (Vista), open all file types of extension .foo with
Chrome App, and pass the foo path to the application as anchor, like
in http://netpadd/#C:\bar.foo
Current workaround: using a CMD file with the following does the job,
and I can properly connect .foo files with it (with the remaining
issue that the batch window is briefly visible on startup):
start C:\...\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe --
app="http://netpadd/#%1"
cheers
