navigator.cookieEnabled currently indicates if “the user agent attempts to handle cookies” in a given context. A change in Chrome, shipping as part of third-party cookie deprecation (3PCD), would cause it to indicate whether unpartitioned cookie access is possible (causing it to return false in most cross-site iframes). We should restore the prior behavior of navigator.cookieEnabled which indicated only if cookies were enabled/disabled for the site and rely on the cross-vendor function document.hasStorageAccess to indicate if unpartitioned cookie access is possible. #

Let CSSPageRule inherit from CSSGroupingRule instead of CSSRule. The spec [1] says that CSSPageRule interface should inherit from CSSGroupingRule, but Blink inherits from CSSRule instead. In order to support @page margins [2] (CSSMarginRule), CSSPageRule needs to support child rules.

"Close requests" are a new concept that encompasses user requests to close something currently open, using the Esc key on desktop or the back gesture/button on Android. Integrating them into Chromium comes with two changes: * CloseWatcher, a new API for directly listening and responding to close requests. * Upgrades to <dialog> and popover="" to use the new close request framework, so that they respond to the Android back button. #

Extend the GamepadHapticActuator interface to expose the trigger-rumble capability in the Web for compatible gamepads. This extension will allow web applications that take advantage of the Gamepad API to also vibrate the triggers of gamepad devices that come equipped with this functionality. #

Adds support for muxing audio/video into MP4 containers with MediaRecorder. Developer can record media format, container, with MP4 of H264 video and AAC audio codecs in the MediaRecorder API. #

No linked samples`OpusEncoderConfig.signal` and `OpusEncoderConfig.application` were recently added to the WebCodecs spec [1]. Both parameters are mapped directly to implementation specific encoder knobs. These allow web authors to provide hints as to what type of data is being encoded, and in which context the data is being used. `signal` can be one of {"auto", "music", "voice"}. It configures the encoder for the best performance in encoding the specified type of data. `application` can be one of {"voip", "audio", "lowdelay"}. It configures the encoder to favor speech intelligibility, faithful reproduction of the original input, or minimal latency. [1] : https://github.com/w3c/webcodecs/pull/777 #

The first phase of the View Transitions API, explained in https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/g/blink-dev/c/7SMI3IklO4g/m/JS-JojxNAwAJ, allows authors to define visual transitions in SPAs (DOM state changes in the same Document). This intent is about expanding the API to support MPAs. MPA implies same-origin navigations that replace the document with another document (in the main frame or nested iframe). This is a highly requested additional feature. Examples are: https://chriscoyier.net/2022/11/08/astro-stands-to-benefit-highly-from-view-transitions/, https://adactio.com/journal/19578. #

The WebGL specification has defined a WebGLObject superinterface for many years, but Chromium's implementation never exposed it. This did not significantly affect applications in practice, but prevented enabling WebGL IDL tests in the Interop suite. The WebGL working group also aims to finally utilize this superinterface to improve application-level debugging. This feature exposes the WebGLObject type in the same contexts where the WebGL API is exposed - on the main thread and workers. #

Add .toJSON() methods to the GeolocationCoordinates and GeolocationPosition interfaces. These methods will aid in developing automated tests for the Geolocation API and may be useful for debugging as well. If the API were developed today, these WebIDL interfaces would likely be WebIDL dictionaries instead. However, given compatibility constraints, this is the next best option for making these types serializable. #

Scrollend is a JavaScript event that fires to signal that a scrolling operation has come to an end. Similar to the Element interface[1], the visualViewport interface[2] includes an onscrollend event handler that should be invoked when a scrolling operation on the visualViewport has ended. Chromium already supports adding a scrollend event listener via `visualViewport.addEventListener("scrollend")`. This just makes it possible to also add an event listener using `visualViewport.onscrollend`.

To keep the platform healthy, we sometimes remove APIs from the Web Platform which have run their course. There can be many reasons why we would remove an API, such as:
Some of these changes will have an effect on a very small number of sites. To mitigate issues ahead of time, we try to give developers advanced notice so they can make the required changes to keep their sites running.
Chrome currently has a process for deprecations and removals of API's, essentially:
You can find a list of all deprecated features on chromestatus.com using the deprecated filter and removed features by applying the removed filter. We will also try to summarize some of the changes, reasoning, and migration paths in these posts.
This release of Chrome had 1 features deprecated.
TC39 has consensus for trying to deprecate and remove the `assert` keyword in favor of the new `with` keyword in import attribute syntax. That is, `import m from 'foo' assert { type: 'json' }` will now throw a SyntaxError, and developers must change to `import m from 'foo' with { type: 'json' }`. https://github.com/tc39/proposal-import-attributes/issues/135 #
