It looks like chromium 57 has been pushed to the ppa. I tried it on trusty, and it works. I noticed one difference compared to chrome 57. Flash has been deprecated in chrome 57, and set to on-demand only. Ironically, chromium runs flash by default. The on-demand setting doesn't exist on chromium 57.

Gmail displays this message, "This version of Chrome is no longer supported. Please upgrade to asupported browser." Core functionality in gmail works fine, but I'm not sure of security ramifications of running an old browser, particularly when google advises against it.
