This is fixed upstream. It turned out to be an Epiphany bug after all.
This was the bug that was making Epiphany crash very frequently.

This one is mitigated in Fedora; it won't bring down your computer
anymore, just the one Epiphany tab that is affected by the bug. I don't
know if the mitigation will be accepted upstream, though.

This issue is outstanding, but in retrospect it's not really serious
enough for Epiphany to include it on this list, since it occurs much
less frequently than the above issues.

These two still need to be fixed. I think there might be a third bug
that needs to be fixed for video playback to work after those two are
fixed; not sure.

Anyway, I am happily using Epiphany again; I only keep Firefox around
now for YouTube.
