Aside from not working with X forwarding, another issue with the flatpack edition of Chromium seems to be that "scale-to-fit" cannot be used to scale it to the screen since there is no APP-ID associated with it. Items in the browser can be resized using keyboard commands, which helps, but there appears to be no way to scale the browser window itself. So for example to manipulate settings it is necessary to keep switching between portait and landscape modes to get at everything.
