I often rebuild chromium several times a day, so I probably don't notice the effect that small changes would have on a more typical user. I'm sorry that the frequent updates are inconvenient for you. I think Pawel and I do a good job of not screwing with the stable channel. We try to limit most of the changes to the dev channel releases (hard masked). The cups use flag change happened just before upstream pushed 16.x to the beta channel (~arch), so that put us in an odd spot when adding the cups use flag back.
