In Edit - Preferences - Advanced - Systems, I can tell Windows to use Mozilla to handle the chrome protocol. Going to Mozilla's help, the keyword "chrome" is not found - if it is in the application, I suggest it should be in the help database as well! (SUGGESTION 1) Searching mozilla.org website provides some info such as http://www.mozilla.org/xpfe/ConfigChromeSpec.html, but even there, it would be great to have a working (tutorial) example chrome URL. (SUGGESTION 2) Going to google yields some hits, but this appears to be a research project to find out what it really does ...
users aren't supposed to come into contact with the chrome protocol, and the Help isn't aimed at developers/customisers - at the moment it barely covers the stuff that users need to know. having said all that, not for me to decide - confirming so that the component owner can have a look.

Summary: chrome not mentioned in help → Help glossary should have an entry for chrome: protocol
Version: Trunk → unspecified
I agree somewhat with Michael, but Mozilla is *for developers* so it might need to be added. If chrome is added, about should added as well.

agreeing with Michael Lefevre. I write user doc and haven't seen the need to explain chrome: (except in commandline documentation, which is not part of online Help) or about: suggesting wontfix
I agree. Even though it appears in that one instance, the chrome protocol is never seen or interacted with other than that. WONTFIX
