It's becoming quite common to get a crash in the UIProcess when showing context menus at least with Debug builds. After debugging it a bit it looks like the problem happens inside WebContextMenuProxyGtk::contextMenuItemVisibilityChanged, here

    GOwnPtr<GList> items(gtk_container_get_children(GTK_CONTAINER(menu)));

Basically the problem is that the menu reference is invalid. That likely means that the menu was freed and then we're trying to use it. Since this is a signal callback the problem is likely that we aren't disconnecting the signals when destroying the context menu.

Patch to follow.
