The crash is in Flash and there is nothing we can do. gdb output is not meaninful since it just shows some ??? in flash code. In essence, we give Flash the right-click event and it just locks up. strace seems to suggest that it's waiting in a select() call.

The behavior is easily reproducible - Goto www.communitymx.com/content/source/E5141/wmodetrans.htm. Right click on the ball. Chrome disables right click. Firefox 3.6.10 (64-bit) crashes.

As for windowed/windowless, we force all Flash to windowless mode with QGraphicsWebView. So, right now, if you right click on Flash on QGraphicsWebView, you will crash.
