If that ends up being too complicated, one approach might be creating a symlink at, say, "%LocalAppData%\Chromium\Chromium (latest)", and replace that each time the updater installs a new version. We could then put a shortcut (with command-line switches, as needed) to the symlink in Programs menu, Task Bar, etc.
While this would not do anything about disk-space usage, keep in mind that a lot of people using this are intentionally keeping more than one version around for testing; this is the very reason that Chromium installs to a version-numbered directory on a per-user basis, instead of just "C:\Program Files\Chromium". That said, I have no opposition to having this controlled in a config file. For my own system, I would actually prefer that latter directory, so it's automatically available for every user on the system without any further twiddling. If I were a Chromium developer, or someone testing builds for later organization-wide deployment, I would definitely not want that centralization, though (but I might still prefer some location other than %LocalAppData%, perhaps keeping the version-numbered subdirectories).

Currently the script gets the folder from the archive and extracts to e.g. %LocalAppData%\Chromium\Application\<folder_from_archive> then creates a shortcut on the Desktop or replaces it.
If custom arguments are wanted these could be set in $srcExeArgs
when creating the shortcut (currently not used)
