I think you overestimate the amount of QA resources available to the Ubuntu project. Looks like this was an issue that only happened after repeated use and seems somewhat related to individual systems' font configurations?

There's more info here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+...

I hope they conduct automated testing with screengrabs for high profile apps such as Chromium (that have something to gain from the snap isolation) and that the test cases have this added.

  s/available to/allocated by/

I don't know that Canonical cares too much about doing QA themselves. It seems like they've decided to delegate that to the userbase.
