Really the plugin shortage for Chromium/Chrome is ancient history.
The only thing Firefox does better these days is certificate checking,
and in practice the gain from that is miniscule security benefit and a
fair performance hit when initiating new HTTPS connections.
Better yet WebRTC will actually work in Chromium, unlike Firefox where
you disable it because it ain't functional yet.
