With Chrome 95 Beta there is a random assortment of changes with some of the highlights including:
- Beginning as an origin trial is the attempt to reduce the HTTP user agent string information exposed to cutdown on the possible browser fingerprinting by websites.
- Also now in origin trial are access handles for the file-system access API. This can provide for much better performance as well as new use-cases.
- Secure Payment Confirmation and WebAssembly Exception Handling have been promoted out of their prior origin trials.
- New is an EyeDropper API for constructing custom color pickers.
- URLPattern as a new API that provides operating system support for matching URLs to a supplied pattern.
