In that issue, you state:

> At the very least, make it available in "Developer options" or via networked ADB.

However, neither "Developer options" nor networked adb are available
unless the Chrome OS device is in developer mode (which, as you point
out, is impractical for non-developers).

What you want is for "Unknown sources" to be available in general, at
least in the Android 8.0 form (per-installer configuration).
