Last time I looked at Chrome you couldn't compile it for Linux at all and it needed some non-free Microsoft library on Windows (ATL, I think). That's the main reason I haven't even considered developing anything for Chrome. Really nice that the Linux port is making progress! Being able to help out with the development without even having to leave Linux is perfect.
