I really wish they'd finally fix that window chrome bug in Windows where the title bar widgets (minimize/maximize/close) are not aligned properly. It's bugged me for as long as I've used Chrome, and yet most custom themes fix said issue.

Chrome 19 also introduces support for Mac OS X Lion's Resume feature, which means quitting Chrome and opening it back up will open the same tabs in the same desktop and in full-screen.

The same has happened in OS X since I can remember and they never fixed it. I can't imagine a single valid reason for this misalignment, apparently they just don't care.

I only updated to Lion 2 days ago and was immediately annoyed by the lack of full-screen resume, it seems they fixed it just in time for me :D

It's been proven time and time again that Google doesn't care about the UI and only cares about marginal speed increases that doesn't make a difference for real world usage most of the time.

They need to fix the MOST ANNOYING BUG, which is when you hit the space bar, it scrolls down the page. This makes it impossible to chat using Chrome on various websites that use Flash apps. An example would be Tinychat.com. A simple option to turn off that feature would be nice. I'm pretty sure they have to know about this bug, yet as far as I know it has not, nor ever will be fixed. That's a dealbreaker for me. I'm going to keep using Firefox til they fix it.

This is 100% not a bug. It's completely intended behavior, and it's like that in every single web browser (and some non web browser apps too)
