I guess while we're talking about useful CLI options for chrome, developers and hackers might enjoy this one... You can disable CORS in Chrome if you launch it from the command line with this switch: --disable-web-security

That's handy for when you're developing a front end and IT/devops hasn't approved/enabled the the CORS settings on the backend yet, or if you're just hacking around and want to get data from somewhere that doesn't allow cross domain requests.
