The current upstream effort is tracked at https://chromium-
review.googlesource.com/c/chromium/src/+/532294. However it doesn't seem
to be getting much traction. I am reluctant to distro-patching as it's a
rather large patch that often gets outdated with new chromium versions,
with non-trivial conflicts to solve that sometimes involve re-
architecting.

I am in the process of transitioning to snaps as the official way of
getting chromium updates on Ubuntu. Once that's complete the maintenance
burden will be largely alleviated and I might consider maintaining that
patch.
