Alexander, right, I see two issues with the code. One is that the launchpad plugin tries to open the branch without dealing with the consequences, and on the bigger level, explorer does way too much work on init before running the qt main loop. That stops the pretty error handling from being used for code that's not actually essential for startup, giving a traceback or worse nothing at all if run from the shortcut.
