Bug 280733: www/chromium: web serial api access is disabled
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=280733



--- Description ---
I don't know why, but the web serial api is disabled in FreeBSD chromium
builds. This means I can't manage serial devices via my web browser (a common
thing these days). eg: I have multi programable keyboards, and they use a
website and serial communications to maintain the device.

This was raised in the FreeBSD Forum, where I discovered that it wasn't user
permission issues, but rather that chromium is not built with Serial API
enabled.
