My test: run "MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 firefox" (I have MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 in /etc/environment), go to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GTK : select all text & copy it, go to http://paste.alacon.org/ and paste the text in the textarea. Then select again the text => Firefox exit immediately with gtk3-3.24.1-2.fc29.
Using gtk3-3.24.1-3.fc29, Firefox no longer crash. Good!
More info in my original bug reports:
Firefox with Wayland crash on wl_abort() when selecting more than 4000 characters in a <textarea>: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1539773</p> <p>On Wayland, notify_surrounding_text() crash on wl_abort() if text is longer than 4000 bytes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/issues/1783</p></div></textarea>
I'm not sure if the system accounted my vote after I added my second comment. Just I case, I vote again.
