Because you have "Show suggestions for navigation errors" turned on (in 
tools>options>under the hood) the page that is displayed in a DNS error is actually 
on Google's web server.  Chromium's user-agent is the same Google Chrome, as it would 
break compatibility with any web page expecting to see "Chrome".  This means the page 
can't know which flavor you're running.

Status: Available here probably means that Chromium welcomes a patch that would insert 
or change some few characters of the browser useragent string to distinguish Chrome 
from Chromium (and then send an email to someone working with that error/search page).

The error pages no longer show the icon, and all the ones I could find that do display the product name use a proper branding string.
