I would agree that i think it might be helpful to add this once Chrome is proven to be a popular browser and it is out of beta(and with google that might be a while). From what i read and hear, the javascript engine in Chrome is different from safari so being able to check for that might be a good thing if when need to do something specific in Chrome and not others.
Again, I don't think this is an issue until Chrome is at least out of beta as supporting a beta web browser does not seem to make sense to me(it is not something i am going to actively support but will still test my code in it).
