doing a little bit more digging...looks like there *is* such a recovery mechanism though it's on the commandline, which is just as well...though it doesn't work that's a separate issue.

( It was hidden way at the bottom of
https://support.google.com/chromebook/answer/1080595?hl=en-GB which is fair)

Thanks for filing the issue!

As mentioned in "steps to reproduce the problem" in comment#0, issue seems related to chrome book, hence adding appropriate OS label to it.

Thanks!
