This would be very interesting indeed, thanks for the effort :)

You can try to send them upstream, some information about that is here:
http://www.chromium.org/developers/contributing-code
(this involves signing an agreement and checking out 14+ GB of source code)

Or just give a pointer in which it can be integrated into our GitHub
development repository at
https://github.com/gliaskos/freebsd-chromium (under a new 'dev' branch)

René
