These lines from xsession-errors are important:

(<unknown>:1395): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_sequence_get: assertion `!is_end (iter)' failed
(<unknown>:1395): dee-CRITICAL **: Internal error: NULL row in DeeSequenceModel@0x9b89900 at position 0

It means that PlaceEntryRemote::GetResult() calls dee_model_get_XYZ() and an end iter of a DeeModel. This is a programming error from the caller, so I don't know whether it's fair for Dee to crash or not...
