From quite a long time I've been seeing this messages spit to the log from the WebKitWebProcess: ... WebKitDOMNode* webkit_dom_node_append_child(WebKitDOMNode*, WebKitDOMNode*, GError**): assertion 'WEBKIT_DOM_IS_NODE(self)' failed [repeats several times] ... Specially, when restoring a closed session from Ephy. I didn't report this before because of the particularities of my running Ephy, but I can still observ this with the distribution packages in current Debian Testing: WebKit 2.12.5, Ephy 3.20.3 The only difference from a standard installation is that I have set the dconf key: "process-model" = "shared-secondary-process"
This is an Epiphany bug. It would be useful to get a backtrace with G_DEBUG=fatal-criticals. But I think I got one before, looked into it, and couldn't find the problem anyway. :(

If you link to the proper Ephy bug, feel free to close again.
I looked for the Ephy bug (pretty sure it exists) but couldn't find it. Anyway, proof is that an application without a web extension will not be using the DOM API at all, that function would never be called. I investigated it before, the error is somewhere in ephy-web-extension.c, I just don't remember where (hence why it would be useful to get another backtrace).

I still don't get with that explanation why it should be an Ephy bug. Anyway, won't fight about this. Reported and added into "See Also": https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=772515
