Bug Description

To reproduce:

do a fresh flash install (I used r33) and be sure to --wipe (make a backup)

then I installed silo 17 which has the latest USSOA from trunk, along with oxide 1.2 final.

Steps to reproduce:
1. open reminders.app
2. create an account
3. in the account creation box, fill in the form with your evernote creds
4. on the next screen: re-authorize the app for your account

Expected result: the account is created and you get back to reminders.app
Actual result: _usr_bin_online-accounts-ui.32011.crash

WORKAROUND

For now, it is still possible to use the reminders.app on a clean install:
1. open Ubuntu System Settings > Online Accounts
2. declare a new Evernote account
3. once the account is created, go to the evernote account details and toggle ON the Evernote app authorization
4. open reminders.app

Link to the stack trace, but it feels like a false positive:

Unfortunately I couldn't reproduce it. There are several errors from u-s-s-o-a in errors.ubuntu.com with a similar stacktrace, but I suspect that the crash is caused by memory corruption happening elsewhere.
I'll be working on increasing the code coverage of our unit tests, and tun them under valgrind.

Still I've no clue about this bug. I'll set it to incomplete, waiting for a valid stack trace or more informations on how to reproduce it.
