Hi,

just had another 2 crashes in 15 mins writing I think 1 youtube comment
and 1 github comment.

Its about this input boxes here. I dont know if thats related to the
backend, buti its a pain in the ass.

Maybe try now to debug it, maybe its not related to that backend.

I have noticed crashes before as well but was too lazy to say anything
on the list.

I think just opening a ticket (or pull request) on the Nixpkgs github
repo is the standard way of doing things. E.g., here's an example of an
open ticket related to qutebrowser:

Should we update the qutebrowser package to use the QtWebEngine backend (i.e. 
enable the --backend webengine flag)? I don't feel like I have the authority to 
make this decision; do other people who use qutebrowser want to weigh in? 
What's the etiquite here?

The new QtWebEngine backend is pretty usable already when you install
qutebrowser from git and launch with --backend webengine. There are
only some smaller features missing, support for the last big missing
feature (downloads) will land somewhen next week probably.
