This was a good idea. I hit this crash several times already shortly after updating to 2.39.4, and was able to very easily see what the main thread is doing and quickly determine that the underlying problem was bug #247057. So it's immediately paying off. If the web process had been doing something else, it would have been easy to report a new bug.
