The crash log as generated by the auto bug reporter

SUMMARY
I opened Kdenlive and went into the recent projects menu under "File". The program had automatically loaded my most recent project, but I wanted to load the least recent of those in the recent projects menu. Upon selecting that project, Kdenlive immediately crashed.

I think the automatically-loaded project might still have been loading a few clips when I tried to load the older one. Upon retrying, I successfully loaded the older project and also noted it had a modified clip, if that's relevant.

After a few tries, I was unable to reproduce the crash.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Load Kdenlive, with the most recent project automatically opened
2. Try to load a different project from the recent projects menu (possibly specifically the oldest one there)

However, I was unable to reproduce this. If it has to do with the other project still loading clips, as I suspect it might, one may have to navigate the menu very quickly to reproduce it.

OBSERVED RESULT
Kdenlive crashes instantly.

EXPECTED RESULT
The older project is loaded.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux: 5.18.5 (x86_64)
Distrobution: Slackware 15.0 (post 15.0 -current)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.25.1
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.95.0
Qt Version: 5.15.4

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
A couple of side notes:
The auto bug reporter failed to submit the bug report with the following error response:
{
   "code" : 1000,
   "documentation" : "https://bugzilla.readthedocs.org/en/5.0/api/",
   "error" : true,
   "message" : "You may not search, or create saved searches, without any search terms."
}
It also automatically detected my windowing system as X11 even though I'm running Plasma Wayland.

> Are you still experiencing this?

Hard to say (and sorry for being late to get back on this) - as in the original bug report, it's difficult to reproduce, and I don't use kdenlive *all that* often. I did manage to produce a crash today from attempting the same scenario that caused it before, but the UI was hanging a bit as the project was loaded, so I can't say if it was definitely the same crash or not, especially since the crash reporter couldn't generate a traceback for it.
