What are the other missing features?

  it's actually been a while since i tried chrome, so for all i know, the things that held me back before, are available now. i know that before i sorely missed some of my FF extensions. when i get home this evening, i'll take another look and see how it compares now. if i'm still not satisfied, i'll follow up here with a list.

    so, as promised, here are things i'm still having issues with in Chrome: no script session management tab management auto-discovery for RSS feeds user-scripts password hasher https everywhere for several of these, there are extensions available, but either they don't measure up the FF version, or there are several different extensions that i'll have to wade through before i can make any kind of judgement as to whether they're any good.

  The whole javascript-or-NSAPI dilemma for writing extensions in Chrome is a bit of a drag. There is a PRETTY BIG gap between those two APIs. Mozilla opens more of its guts via XUL and XPCOM than does Chrome, which is probably why toys like Live-Headers and Firebug offer more functionality than one finds in the Developer Tools Console. My EUR0.02.

  I'm not the GP, but there's just no comparable addons to Pentadactyl and Tree Style Tab. There's addons that try to do so, but Chrome doesn't seem to offer enough flexibility in their addons to do so. Last time I tried vimium (I think that was it...), they definitely had the "scroll around by keyboard and use hint numbers/letters" down, but Pentadactyl can control pretty much the entire browser. Similarly, The vertical tabs option has nowhere near the functionality of Tree Style Tabs, with the obvious missing functionality being hierarchy and collapsing of trees.
