Chromium is open source. Is Chrome completely open source?

Almost all in Chromium is open-source, there are some missing pieces though.

For example, the per-device configuration (GPU acceleration enabled or not, etc) is not there, the statistics collection infrastructure, the WebAPK minting code is not there, etc.
