Control: severity -1 important

Hi Gregor,

Chiming in, even though I'm not a chromium maintainer, as I just pulled in the
new version from sid and cannot reproduce the issue, under either Wayland/sway
or X11 (in both case on my x230 laptop (Intel Ivy Bridge, “HD Graphics 4000”)

Could you try to reproduce with `--temp-profile`, to eliminate the possibility
of it being something specific to your system?

I suspect the Xlib “sequence lost” mesage is a red herring, as I get it too
even though chromium works for me :

$ chromium --temp-profile

[the output ends here avter I exited chromium cleanly]

That's something, at least.

I'm downgrading the severity of the bug to “important”, as it fits: it is “a bug
which has a major effect on the usability of a package,” since chromium doesn't
start with default arguments, “without rendering it completely unusable to
everyone” as it only affects a subset of users and a workaround is available

AFAIK, “serious” should only be set by the release team or package maintainers,
or for a policy violation.
