Just upgraded

$ chromium --version
Chromium 132.0.6834.110

and it looks like the old headless mode is now gone

chromium --headless=old
Old Headless mode has been removed from the Chrome binary. Please use
the new Headless mode
(https://developer.chrome.com/docs/chromium/new-headless) or the
chrome-headless-shell which is a standalone implementation of the old
Headless mode (https://developer.chrome.com/blog/chrome-headless-shell).

Just to recap: The "new" headless thing is different from the old.
It's intended to be much closer to normal Chrome, and to be used for
testing where you want that similarity (web apps and extensions) where
as the "old" headless is supposed to be used for engine-like tasks,
screenshots, PDF-generation, printing, etc.

The new headless is available as --headless whereas the old headless
is available in a separate binary. Would you consider shipping the new
binary? It's a loss of functionality on upgrade otherwise.
