I've updated this bug (http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=4476) with the details, but just to reiterate: It is possible to implement them, but we aren't going to do it until we have some better security infrastructure in place. > There are over 16+ Million users that play many of Zynga's games, and we've > written a handful of scripts to support many of them, using Greasemonkey, > but we have over 2+ million users complaining that the scripts won't work in > Google Chrome.
