chrome n.
[from automotive slang via wargaming] Showy features
added to attract users but contributing little or nothing to
the power of a system. "The 3D icons in Motif are just chrome,
but they certainly are pretty chrome!" Distinguished from
bells and whistles by the fact that the latter are usually
added to gratify developers' own desires for featurefulness.
Often used as a term of contempt.
