Chromium is in the short list of microrelease exceptions that were approved by the Tech Board, which is why it gets version-bumped, instead of patch backports. See:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates/MicroReleaseExceptions Chromium is a universe-supported project, and as such, is supported by the community. For the details on why that decision was made, please ask the chromium-browser maintainers. This discussion is getting way off topic for a bug, please continue this discussion either on irc, or on an appropriate mailing list.
