Please install libqt6webenginecore6-bin package.
Missing dependency is a bug in Qt WebEngine, it is fixed in experimental
branch [1] and will be fixed in unstable after the transition [2] is approved.
I don't want to add it as dependency in retext because Qt WebEngine itself
is optional and is not available on all architectures.

Indeed installing it fixes the problem.
However, as a more general note, could simple python exceptions like
this not quit the whole app? If there was unsaved text, and the user
tries to enable such an innocent-looking option, then the app may fail
in enabling it, sure, it happens, but it's not critical enough to quit
the app immediately, and to lose all unsaved user data.
At the very least print the exception on stderr but do not quit at all.
At best, display an error message in a dialogbox.
