These exceptions are not in the tasklist code so I can't
really comment on them.

The exceptions in your end-of.log file are in tasklist
code. They're in the xml-column-configuration code so
Tim is more familiar with the code - any ideas Tim? I
seem to recall some null pointer exception in this code
a while ago that was fixed - but if you're running
the tasklist-dev35 code you should have the fix, so
it must be something new.

I'm not sure how the suggestions view could have gone
"deaf". I presume restarting the IDE got it back in
business. If you find a way to reproduce it or if you
have some ideas for factors that might have affected
it, please let me know.

Thanks for your feedback - sorry the code is causing
problems for you. I'd like to put some effort into
trying to stabilize the dev branch more, but I'm swamped
at work for a while.
