This bug is not in OTA6.  It is a regression.

And isn't final validation the point where stop-ship bugs can still be
discovered?  Else it's just rubber-stamping.  Obviously, reasonable
people can disagree that this is stop-ship.  But the fact that we're in
final validation doesn't mean that if the bug is bad enough, we can
delay.

I think this bug is worse than you believe.  It's easy to accidentally
(or intentionally) trigger.

Consider you are looking at some webapp.  And you put your finger on the
screen, ready to scroll when you're done reading the paragraph.  But you
accidentally long-pressed a link in the article.  Crash.

Or you very reasonably want to copy and paste a link.  Crash.  Copy and
pasting links will not be possible in OTA7 if this ships.

Title:
  [webapp-container] Crash with open context menu

Status in Canonical System Image:
  Confirmed
Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I'm able to reliably crash/freeze webapp-container on the phone.

  1) Open to a page with links
  2) Hold down your finger over one of the links until you see the "Copy link" popup menu
  3) While still pressing down, swipe up and down a bit

  For me, this will cause the app to crash or freeze, depending on how
  it's feeling that moment.

  webbrowser-app itself doesn't seem affected by those specific steps
  (though it has a different context menu anyway).  I *have* seen it
  freeze on me.  I just don't know what I did.
