The Arch Linux one sort of doesn't count. The AUR is a user-created package repository. Anyone can make a build and add it to the AUR.

Can you elaborate on what you mean by "doesn't count"?
It's not an official package. The Arch Linux project cannot be held responsible for what non-official packages do.
I agree with you. I don't think any Chromium distributions are at risk of their keys being revoked - I don't believe Google will take any action here.

But, I also don't see anyone ever talk about this, and I think it's worth people being aware.
