Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

• Console errors ("Worker was terminated") occur when closing a PDF view during loading, related to the Mozilla/pdf.js integration.

What is the root cause of that problem?

• The pdf.js worker from Mozilla mishandles component unmounting, leading to these errors.

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

• Wait for the upstream fix in react-pdf and Mozilla/pdf.js.
• Upgrade to the fixed versions of pdf.js from Mozilla and react-pdf.
• Remove the patches currently applied to address this issue.

What alternative solutions did you explore? (Optional)

N.A
