(Keywords: meta)

We need to build GVE with isolated process, try starting it and loading a page and see what happens. Any crashes and failures to be reported under this meta.

If we are able to run GVE and successfully load a page, this meta is fixed.

Ran: Aug 15, 2025 on Aug 14, 2025 MC tree

Test setup:
Android 14 Emulator
Confirmed isolated process via adb shell "ps -Z -A | grep -i :tab"

Tested
✅ App starts up
✅ about:about - loads
✅ about:config - loads
✅ Mozilla.org - loads
❌ youtube.com - crashes
❌ Loading a video - crashes
✅ Error pages - load
✅ Save page as PDF - works
✅ Opening a PDF via web - works
✅ Print Page (menu/content) - works
❌ Translate page (menu) - crashes
✅ Download a language model - works
✅ Desktop mode - works

Generally seems to run okay if media isn't involved.
