I think Microsoft made already a deal with Google about the control of chromium. It would be endless naive otherwise.
Do not forget that this is a full development stack within Windows. UWP has a JavaScript/HTML runtime and Microsoft's recent pwa visions both need to earn money.
My bet is that Google will announce in the next weeks or at the next io a foundation for dealing with chromium.
The only thing which itches me with that a bit is ChromeOS. But maybe that is more a plugin thingy.
