"List index (3) out of bounds" when backspacing new title over default title about tomboy-ng HOT 4 CLOSED

The program stayed frozen; trying to close any note prompted a force quit message which quit the whole program.

Here's the newly created note that it bailed on, after i pasted in the "Improve performance.." line and started backspacing over the default note title.:

Thanks for your reports Ben, especially this one !
I 'thought' I saw exactly this while I was going through my test process for recent release but could not reproduce it. At the time I had backspaced across all of the title and then auto save cut in. Tried several times to do it again but could not. Since then, I have locked KMemo during a save and (obviously) have not seen it since. Not very conclusive.
So, that fix (if its a fix) is in the Git code but not in the binaries yet. I'm going to do a new binary for the Mac, maybe I make it a new binaries all round ? A day or so ...

OK, release v0.13 will probably fix this. Lets leave it open until we are sure.

I have not seen a repeat of this issue and have to assume it was fixed when I locked KMemo during a save.
