I wish this was upvoted more. This is the correct way to troubleshoot the bug, full stop. You can get symbolic stack traces with full arguments and source code on Windows in about 5-10 minutes for any Chrome crash by following these instructions. I always have a last change exception handler that fires up a WinDBG script on Windows for our chromium-based test runners, which reduces troubleshooting time to just a couple minutes in order to find the symbol in their bug database. Playing blackbox what-if games like the Gusto team is a waste of time and doesn't contribute any situation-specific knowledge to bugs.chromium.org.
