SUMMARY
I'm running Plasma 5.27.7 on Wayland in a Fedora 39 KDE Plasma installation. I
created a new icon for the upstream Firefox 117.0 by right-clicking on the
desktop filling in the names, icon, and the program path. When I clicked on the
new icon, FIrefox started on XWayland. I right-clicked on the Firefox icon,
selected Properties, and added MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 to the Program field. When
I clicked on the Firefox icon again, Firefox didn't start. I right-clicked on
the Firefox icon, and selected Properties. plasmashell crashed and the screen
went black for a second or so before it restarted. The journal showed errors
like the following.

drkonqi tried to start but didn't appear. No core dumps were shown in
coredumpctl or the journal. This type of crash has happened each of several
times I've tried to click on Properties with MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 to the
Program field. I knew but forgot that MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 should be added to
the Enviroment Variables field in Properties.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Boot a Fedora 39 KDE Plasma installation updated to 2023-8-29 with the
updates-testing repo enabled
2. Log in to Plasma on Wayland
3. Right-click on the desktop background
4. Click Create New in the context menu
5. Click Link to Application
6. Select the Application tab
7. Enter MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 firefox in the Program field
8. Select OK
9. Right-click on the new Firefox icon
10. Select Properties
I was using the upstream Firefox 117.0 which can be downloaded from
https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/#product-desktop-release You can try
using that instead if making a new icon for the Fedora firefox doesn't lead to
the crash.
OBSERVED RESULT
plasmashell crashed when clicking Properties on a Firefox icon with an
enviroment variable its the Program field
EXPECTED RESULT
plasmashell wouldn't crash. The Properties of the icon would be shown.
