Are you sure that it E10s-related and blocks bug 1219672?

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:56.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/56.0
I'm able to reproduce the crash even when I flip the e10s pref to false "browser.tabs.remote.autostart.2", but it's intermittent. When the pref is set to on I'm getting the crash every time.

OK, as I understand this, if there's a hang in something like Flash hangs, we kill the content tab in order to stop the entire tab from hanging. So we see a ton of these tab crashes, but they are protecting the user from a worse issue (hanging forever).
I'm still seeing a large number of these crashes in nightly and beta. I've marked them as 'affected', since this crash is preventing a hang, please move to 'fix-optional' if wanted.

It's OK to let this fall off triage, it's expected and it's meant to protect the user from a worse crash.
