Description
I have implemented a "Safe Mode" in https://github.com/sonnyp/Workbench/commit/b9b24f93b78caea4d8b1805726cb29f98204450e and https://github.com/sonnyp/Workbench/pull/220
It is disabled by default. I would like to enable it by default but there are some things to figure out.
- What is the usability / performance cost?
- Is it needed with external preview?
- Is it needed with upcoming windowed preview? (we could just use separate JS process)
- Is there a way to disable abrt crash report for a process?
