Plugins stopped working in Chromium in Debian Testing

Question

Short time ago plugins stopped working in chromium. Neither of kpartsplugin, mozplugger nor flashplayer-nonfree seem to work. Neither comes up in chrome://plugins page (only "Chromoting Viewer" does).

Was there recently any change that would require reconfiguration? And if, of what?

I have Debian Testing (Jessie) amd64, recently updated, with chromium 35.0.1916.114-2, flashplugin-nonfree 1:3.4, kpartsplugin 20120605-1 and mozplugger 1.14.5-2.

this question is probably the same problem, but is less detailed and does not have answer anyway. — Jan Hudec, Jun 12 '14 at 21:02
I also tried adding --enable-plugins in /etc/chrome/defaults (as hinted here), but it does not seem to have any effect. — Jan Hudec, Jun 12 '14 at 21:07

chrome 35 dropped support for NPAPI which basically breaks all plugnis (except for a handful that have been written for the new api.h
