Research direction

Start by reproducing the crash with the attached crash.tar.gz and the five-step nested ZIP sequence, focusing on the second archive opened after closing the first. Inspect the Nemo File Roller extension's crash path and use the same sequence to verify that consecutively opening archives no longer crashes.
