Bug Description

I just upgraded to Ubuntu bionic which currently has WebKitGTK 2.20.0, and WebProcess is now crashing when Geary's WebExtension is attempting to print a console message.

This is a moderately severe issue, since it stops any email that causes a console message to be printed to not be displays.

I'm closing this bug since I see you're reported in the upstream bug that this bug can't be reproduced with webkit 2.20.1 and Ubuntu 18.04 LTS has a newer version than that now.
