What's the issue you encountered?

After a crash, the original file will be loaded. When the crash report dialog is still open, the pattern suggestion prompt can open, dismissing the crash report.

Cause a crash while editing a file that has a "#pragma magic" or "#pragma filename"

When the app reloads, the crash window will be dismissed as soon as the pattern is recognized.
