Chromium Blog: Chrome 55 Beta: Input handling improvements and async/await functions

With the upcoming Chrome 55 (now in beta), the browser will finally get support for Pointer Events. It will also support JavaScript async/await-functions and revive the CSS hyphens property again after years of absence in Chromium browsers. The once Event Listener option will also be added and, to improve load times and prevent failed navigations, cross-origin and parser-blocking scripts injected using document.write() will no longer load over 2G connections (which also means that in upcoming Chrome versions 3rd-party fallbacks as used by the HTML5Boilerplate won’t work anymore in upcoming Chrome versions).
