No there isn't a bright side for some of us... Only workarounds.

I entered a bugzilla last week. Copy pasting from excel with just a bit 
too much
data (500 rows X 2 or 3 rows) = crash. Once every 3 months i get this... 

You mentioned Sort function crashes. I know regex does too. Im sure 
there's others.

This is an ancient bug and if i get hit every 3 months by it, you have, 
Paul seems to also...

Other possibilities to get hit with this bug are:
- Output of data into a field (via script) and then editing
- Pasting data
- Viewing data via propertyPalette

Funnily enough, the revVariableWatcher is protected...

Maybe it's about time this gets fixed instead of being "excused"...

cheers
Xavier
