Research direction
Reproduce the issue in the desktop app with the reported variables, then trigger the uncover variables shortcut with Alt+Shift+U and observe the URL field. Trace the shortcut and URL-input rendering path; done means variables are shown without a removeChild render failure and the rest of the application remains responsive.
