Title:
  Chromium cannot open profile correctly after system crash

Status in Chromium Browser:
  Unknown
Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  After a system crash, Chromium opens two dialog boxes showing

  "You profile could not be opened correctly"

  It doesn't offer any further explanations, and doesn't try to fix it
  by itself.  I found out that I have to remove
  "~/.config/chromium/Default/{Web Data,History}".  Then, I can use
  Chromium normally.  However, the data in those files is lost.

  Instead, Chromium should write to those files in a way that the data
  cannot be get corrupted in a crash.  Until this is realised, Chromium
  should at least offer to remove the corrupted files by itself.
