Thank you @Mario Vavti My report was incomplete - and I found the bug in the logs. Superblock was enabled, disabling it stopped the error. Uh. That must have been me causing this, as i was using some code from superblock for a new addon (which was disabled before). My new addon works, superblock doesn't. I guess i am not built for such things, however trying this to get features i am missing, that's why the dev site.
