Browsers use undocumented APIs all the time. Doing so is unfortunately close to necessary.

  But it can lead to instability. There's a reason these are not documented. Also, we know Chromium used some. There's a proprietary Chrome layer on top of it that might be using more under the hood. Unless someone decompiles there's no way of knowing (but considering how it broke Enterprise, wouldn't be surprised it was doing undocumented stuff under the hood).
