This morning I checked, and Google Chrome was updated to 6.0.482.4 with some interesting new features for the Mac:

All

  • [r52790] Chromium stops saving files for any large downloads (Issue 49216)
  • [r52693] Fix crash with SSL client auth (Issue 49197)
  • [r52850] Option clicking a link now saves a resource directly without triggering a “Save As...” dialog (Issue 36775)

Mac

  • [r52911] Implement the upgrade available notification on the Wrench menu (Issue 45147)
  • [r52485] Implement the new, unified Wrench menu (Issue 47848)

And I have to say, the new, unified "wrench" menu is pretty interesting:

I'm not sure how the non-standard menu items like cut, copy & paste, and the zoom are going to go over. It seems like they went for the "common denominator" here, but even then, the edit operations are all pretty standard on all the platforms - only the shortcut key-bindings are different. Hard to see why they went this way, but they did.

Anyway, it's nice to be up to date.
