OK, I have a different question for you.

Why is it that you think that objects that are put on the redo stack should
never be finalized? If you put a new object on the undo stack, then I believe
that makes the redo stack get emptied in which case the objects on the redo
stack should be finalized soon afterward.

I was easily able to reproduce objects on the redo stack being finalized by
changing the test case so the redo didn't involve DOM wrappers at all -- just a
custom object, and many instances of this custom class were finalized even
though all were added to the redo stack. I think that makes it pretty clear
here that nothing here is about DOM wrappers. It seems more like a
misunderstanding about undo/redo. But I don't get how that relates to your
original crash.
