Well, it's only going into my unofficial backports anyway, so I see no
harm (unless Guisseppe thinks its ok for official backports).

--single-process is actually not that bad of a solution.  It just means
that there's a larger risk of information flowing between tabs (and of
course multiple cores won't be used, and a crash in any tab leads to a
crash of the whole browser).

Of course, didn't you?  If it were that easy, it would be solved.

Best wishes,
Mike
