> 3. Two finger touchpad scroll doesn't work on Android apps for scrolling -- painful as heck when Wikipedia links open in the Android app in laptop mode

I think that's a bug with the Wikipedia app. Touchpad scrolling seems to work in most Android apps. The Firefox app also had this bug, but they fixed it.

It's a bug with WebViews on Android apps on Chromebook:

https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=704051

Any Android app that has a WebView (https://developer.android.com/reference/android/webkit/WebVi...) seems to experience this bug. A workaround is to uninstall updates to the WebView package in the Play store, as the original shipping one does work with two-finger touchpad scrolling.

If you star this issue, it may get more attention.

Don't uninstall WebView updates! There are security relevant fixes included.
