Chrome object dump

What was inside the browser's native objects when Chrome was first released.

When the iphone was first released I wanted to see what was “unique” inside the browser. The iphone was pretty inaccessible. So I wrote some scripts that would run a Dojo debug on some of the key native objects and send the response back to the server to be stored for analysis.

With Chrome’s recent release there is less of a need for this sort of approach - since the source code is there for all to read. That said, I’m not one for digging through browser source code, in my constant quest for immediate satisfaction, I through my object test dumping scripts at Chrome just to see.

Here’s the findings.
