Small correction to my previous comment, on the A/B test method: the
GTK_MODULES environment variable only adds modules on top of the
gtk-modules line in settings.ini — it does not override it — so the
removal side of the test was performed differently, with two methods:

1. Editing the gtk-modules line directly in settings.ini for the session
   (KDE regenerates the file at each login, so the edit only lasts until
   the next login — enough for the test).
2. As a cross-check, blocking the module for Chrome specifically through
   the module's own per-application blacklist:

   gsettings set org.appmenu.gtk-module blacklist "['google-chrome']"

The results are unchanged: with the same binary, removing
appmenu-gtk-module from the list -> starts fine; re-adding it ->
crashes every launch; and testing each of the three modules
individually, only appmenu-gtk-module triggers the crash.

Worth noting for anyone exploring workarounds: since GTK_MODULES only
adds modules, it cannot be used to exclude appmenu-gtk-module from the
list.
