Crash when opening console on extension options page
-
Whenever I attempt to open the console/dev tools on a full-page extension options page, i.e. chrome-extension://<extension-id>/options.html, the browser crashes. Has anyone else encountered this?

OS Windows 10It's happened with every extension I've tested that opens options as its own local page under chrome-extension://. That is, any extension which has the manifest option "options_ui"->"open_in_tab" set to true. If the extension instead opens options as a popup on the extension page, right-clicking and selecting inspect will successfully open dev tools without issue. Here's a list of extensions I tested:
