<p>This is definitively a bug, the plugin should handle the error gracefully rather than making Geany unusable and causing the user to potentially lose data. At the very least it should throw up a dialog and allow the user to get out of the inifinite loop to save their work. Re-opening since it's a core plugin, even though the bug isn't inside Geany itself.</p>
