Some notes on chromium:

1) Wrapper flags support
  The startup wrapper can read chromium flags
  from ~/.config/chromium-flags.conf.
  Example settings in chromium-flags.conf:
    CHROMIUM_FLAGS="--disable-gpu --enable-foo"

2) Disabling WebAssembly
  WebAssembly is enabled by default, but it can be disabled by either:
  - Setting CHROMIUM_ENABLE_WASM=0 in your environment, or
  - Adding the following flags to ~/.config/chromium-flags.conf:
    --disable-features=WebAssembly,AsmJsToWebAssembly,WebAssemblyStreaming
    --js-flags=--noexpose-wasm

3) HID support
  To enable monitoring attached and detached FIDO devices on NetBSD,
  you should enable the ndevd service (a devpubd drop-in replacement)
  in /etc/rc.conf.

4) Widevine support
  Install the multimedia/openwv package and follow the instructions
  in its README.chromium file.
