-This feature only allows HSTS upgrades for top-level navigations, and blocks HSTS upgrades for sub-resource requests.  Blocking such an HSTS upgrade makes it infeasible for third-party sites to use the HSTS cache in order to track a user across the web.

-<!-- ---------- -->
-###### New PWA manifest update algorithm
-
-The updating of installed PWAs uses a new algorithm.  The new update algorithm makes the update process more deterministic and predictable, and gives you more control over whether, and when, updates should apply to existing installations of your app.
-
-The new update algorithm has the following benefits:
-
-* **Consistency:** The algorithm provides a consistent way to detect when a manifest update should happen.
-* **Reduced user interruptions:** App users won't see the update dialog, except when it's strictly necessary, such as to confirm security-sensitive changes.
-* **Browser flexibility:** Microsoft Edge can now allow known, trusted apps to update without displaying a notification, and can block updates for known bad apps.
-* **Developer control:** You have more control over when the update dialog is shown to users.
-* **Reduce network traffic:** Unnecessary network traffic is minimized.

-###### `document.activeViewTransition` property
-
-The `document.activeViewTransition` property provides access to the currently running view transition, whether this transition is on a single web page, or between two web pages.
-
-The View Transition API allows you to create visual transitions between different states of a single page, or between multiple pages.
-
-For transitions within single pages, the `document.startViewTransition()` method returns a transition object.  The `document.activeViewTransition` property now provides access to this transition object, which means you no longer need to store the `document.startViewTransition()` return value.
-
-For transitions between multiple pages, the `document.activeViewTransition` property now gives you access to the currently running transition object, for the duration of the transition. This is in addition to the `pageswap` and `pagereveal` events.

-todo: this is planned to ship with 142 after all. Keeping here until we need it for the 142 release notes.
-###### Range syntax for style container queries and `if()` functions
-
-The CSS `@container style()` queries and `if()` functions now support the range syntax.
-
-The range syntax makes it possible to compare custom properties and values by using the `<` and `>` operators.
-
-For a comparison to be valid, both sides of the comparison must resolve to the same data type.  The range syntax is limited to the following numeric types: `<length>`, `<number>`, `<percentage>`, `<angle>`, `<time>`, `<frequency>`, and `<resolution>`.
-
-Example comparing a custom property with a literal length:
-
-```css
-@container style(--inner-padding > 1em) {
-  .card { border: 2px solid; }
-}
-```
-
-Example comparing two literal values:
-
-```css
-@container style(1em < 20px) {
-  ...
-}
-```
-
-Example comparing a value from the `attr()` substitution function with a literal value:
-
-```css
-.item-grid {
-  background-color: if(style(attr(data-columns, type<number>) > 2): lightblue; else: white);
-}
-```

-###### `dataTransfer` property for `insertFromPaste`, `insertFromDrop`, and `insertReplacementText` input events
-
-The input event objects of type `insertFromPaste`, `insertFromDrop`, and `insertReplacementText` now have a `dataTransfer` property, for better interoperability with other browsers.
-
-The `dataTransfer` property provides access to the clipboard or drag-drop data when the user edits text within a `contenteditable` element.  The same data is also available on the `dataTransfer` property of `beforeinput` events.
