 You're welcome :)

 > I'm unable to reproduce this with the plugin mentioned, and can't find
 any code in any version of it which could trigger it (as far as I could
 tell).

 My guess is that there is something that crashes in the plugin itself.

 Perhaps there is a failing POST request, or some other error condition.

 It doesn't matter much, because plugin and theme code are outside of the
 WP core's control anyway, so checking the input from plugins is pretty
 vital.
