    - Updated Awesome Bar experience with larger icons

    - JavaScript Maps and Sets are now iterable

    - SVG FillPaint and StrokePaint implemented

      Developer Toolbar faster and easier to use

    - New Markup panel in the Page Inspector allows easy
      editing of the DOM

    - Sandbox attribute for iframes implemented, enabling
      increased security

      around the New Tab page

    - Page scrolling on sites with fixed headers (780345)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding
