[traceviewer] - trace2html can parse a .json.gz file but chrome://tracing fails #4633

This is a .json.gz tracing file generated by a Linux multithreaded application and compressed during runtime using boost::iostreams::gzip. trace2html can parse this file directly and convert it to a working html. But in our workflow we typically want to open it directly in a chrome://tracing tab.

I've reported this to the Chrome developers using the "report an issue" feature but received no response, so I'm trying my luck here. Thanks :)
