Bug description

When changing anything in the user preferences, Chromium browsers will always complain that the page is "dirty".

How to reproduce

1. Go to a Statamic site using a Chromium browser such as Chrome, Edge, or Arc. This can even be a newly installed vanilla Statamic site.
2. Log into the CP
3. Go to the User > Preferences page
4. Pick or change your Locale
5. Click Save

The expected behavior is that the preferences are saved with no warnings from the browser. This is, in fact, what happens when using Safari on a Mac.

The actual result is that the preferences are saved, but the Chromium browser issues a warning alert "Changes you made may not be saved." and forces you to choose between "OK" and "Cancel", both of which sounds since you want the changes saved. The good news is that the changes were saved. The bad news is that this is a very annoying and confusing warning.

Additional details

Possibly related, when using Bard fields similar "dirty" state confusion often arises in Chromium browsers. Virtually every page I have with a Bard field with complex sets ends up exhibiting similar behavior. Lots of spurious "dirty" alerts, most of which are mistaken. This reduces the impact of these alerts, making our users inclined to click "OK" without really considering the message. A dangerous state of affairs.
