User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:71.0) Gecko/20100101
Firefox/71.0
Steps to reproduce:
- Open firefox (empty or used profile, no difference)
- Open an URL from xdg or from a terminal (firefox-developer-edition https://www.mozilla.org)
Actual results:
Firefox Crashes and ask to restart. If I run firefox in a terminal I see:

I tried with setting GDK_BACKEND=x11. As long as GDK_BACKEND is set for
the new firefox call, when adding a new tab in a terminal it works.
If I set GDK_BACKEND only for the initial firefox call, the subsequent
calls in another terminal with GDK_BACKEND unset do not open a new tab,
and after a few seconds a window saying that firefox is not responding
appears.
I will make firefox run in X11 mode for now. But I would be happy run
any experiment that could help solve that issue.

Doesn't happen with 20191128-firefox-72.0a1 . So I guess it has been
fixed and will make its way in the DE?

Isn't it expected to have some issues when meddling with GDK_BACKEND?
Wouldn't the use of MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 solve the issue? Or Firefox
really tries to support both approaches?

I only used GDK_BACKEND to revert to x11 (and then solving the issue).
GDK_BACKEND was unset in the issue reported.

Mariu, can you check if that works for you in Beta or Nightly?
Thanks.
