[presorted]

I've also used Chromium libraries for cross-platform development in the manner you have suggested. What you might want to address is how you handle deficiencies in the base libraries --- how much do you have to rewrite when you see that the base implementations, which are fine for Chromium, don't offer the features that you need in your app? An example: it includes a fs-events system, to monitor for changes in files, but it is crippled to work around a bug in one version of Mac OS X, and so in the end, one probably has to write their own file-monitoring logic for each platform (or copy the Chromium code, and then modify it). Additionally, once you start modifying the base libraries to add the features that you require, how do you merge with the changes that the Chromium team inexorably publishes?
