Bug Description
I can trigger a crash easily on my phone via bug 1262711. Other bugs are available.
When that happens my phone appears to freeze. I am unable to do anything for approximately 1 to 1.5 minutes. As a user my initial gut reaction is to reboot the phone, thus losing the crash report, and wasting my time.
Having the phone lock up for 1.5 minutes is a terrible user experience. Can we fix/mitigate/

It's estimated to have a moderate impact on a large portion of Ubuntu users.
