Hi,

I wish Chrome would let me set the directory where the disk cache is.
This way, I could use the browser at work too, where the disk and
profile policies make it difficult to use anything else than the
originally deployed browser.

Letting the user move the cache might be a good idea for privacy,
performance, or when the local profile space is insufficient for such
storage. Since I do not believe that many people needs the feature, my
idea is to use (yet another) command line switch.

I poked around in the code, tested an idea and it seemed feasible:
with only a few lines of code added in three source files, this minor
feature is instantly realizable and exposes less than minor risks.

The browser behaves normally ( I am posting this through it ) and the
unit tests reveal nothing strange. Although I have not written a test
case for the new functionality, I would like to show the changes to
someone interested, and review it for inclusion :)
