Except there is no *legal* way to get the pepper Flash plugin without installing Chrome, which makes it sort of irrelevant that you don't need Chrome to run it...

You can install Chrome, build Chromium, then use the latter with the former's plugin. Works fine and lets you hack all of it except the non-free plugin (though obviously there are changes you cannot make to PPAPI without breaking the plugin).

The NSAPI Flash plugin doesn't work well with (recent versions of?) Chrome/Chromium, so I suppose Google wanted the PPAPI for that reason.
(The NSAPI Flash plugin still works fine with Firefox & Opera & other browsers though...)
