Description

Electron [provides](https://www.electronjs.org/docs/api/webview-tag#event-crashed) a way a to hook into this. The hope is we could somehow still navigate to a crash page to tell the user what to do next. Currently crashing involves showing a white page, with no suggestion about what went wrong or what to do next.
