“where I could find more details on this change?”
The change appears to be in development.
@Mattches may know, why the more-detailed brave://flags switch now has a limited list of choices .

### Description
Users frequently request the ability to toggle the `Auto Dark M… ode for Web Contents` feature flag (`#enable-force-dark`) on/off in the browser, the same way users can enable/disable the browser theme, rather than having to enable/disable a flag for it every time. Keeping it as a flag requires that users have to visit the `brave://flags` page, enable/disable the flag and then relaunch the browser each time, which can be arduous.
Additionally, it would be useful to have the ability to enable/disable this feature on a per-site basis -- perhaps via an icon in the address bar, main menu, or keyboard shortcut. This would allow users to quickly turn the feature on/off as needed -- especially if the site they're visiting does not display properly with this mode enabled -- and also retain that information so that they do not have to change it again for a particular site unless desired.

Does any developer know if this will be reverted? The previous choices were more powerful and useful than the standard “Enabled,” which is disappointing.
