Google Chrome's Beta channel has been updated to 2.0.172.5. This release includes all the patches and fixes between 2.0.169.1 and 2.0.172.2.

Some highlights for this release:

  • Lots of bug and stability fixes!
  • Added support to cache some form submissions so that when you press back, you don't get the annoying "Confirm Form Submission"
  • Autocomplete popup now appears when you press up/down key in a text-field.
  • Visited links from normal browsing are no longer being displayed as visited (i.e. purple) in incognito mode.
  • Pressing the Del key while a item is selected in the form suggestion popup deletes that suggestion.
