(1) Launch chrome and open settings >> Now in opened window click on sign in to Chrome button and check for sign in overlay

What is the "show settings in a window" flag? Is that ever planned to be launched? If not, we should close this bug out.

The sign-in screen that you took a screenshot of no longer exists in Chrome. We show the sign-in screen as a modal dialogue instead.

Demoting priority since it's Linux only.

Steven, can you comment on the "show settings in a window" flag? 
Your https://codereview.chromium.org/178863002 added that in 2014.

Perhaps we can remove the flag and choose a single desktop behavior?
Removing M-60 and using Pri-3 since this is old breakage behind a flag.

Yeah, we left the flag in IIRC because there was some discussion about whether it should be used in non-CrOS + Ash, which is no longer a thing.

We should remove the flag and make the behavior CrOS only.

Assigning a milestone because it should be quick to do and code cleanup is important, but leaving as a P3.
