Keyboard shortcut to create a crash report

[Reilly Grant]

When debugging a browser hang it's useful to be able to collect a crash dump. On macOS and Windows the built-in task manager apps can do this. On ChromeOS I'm not aware of a way of doing this other than putting the device in developer mode and using the kill command to send something like SIGSEGV so that the crash reporter catches it and uploads a dump.

Is there a keyboard shortcut that does the same so I don't have to ask an end-user to put their device in developer mode?

I believe SysRq-X supposed to restart Chrome:

Alt+F10 (AKA VolumeUp)+X
