Hi,

Thanks for the reply. I think you misunderstood. I know which extension causes the problem. It is
my extension. I don't know which code is problematic, so "use dump around the code to determine
right before the crash" is a catch-22.

The topics I'm observing are:
  app-startup
  quit-application
  domwindowclosed

The events I'm listening for are:
  load (on appcontent for each window)
  unload

Notably, I'm not listening for the TabSelect event even though the crash occurs when switching
active tabs.
