whilst trying to test some export stuff I was suffering from libreoffice bailing out due to an assert. Problem is in the mysterious UCP layer :-) If you have a broken link in a directory the ucp sniffs then the abort occurs ( e.g. in my case for some reason I had the libreoffice file selector enabled and had such a broken link in my home dir ) 

A tentative fix is here

seems in the past we were forgiving with such a broken link and returned a blank string when trying to get a url. Saying that registering for notifications, setting & inserting ucb properties for such a non-existing file doesn't seem correct. I think that the FileBase stuff is correct to assert and that the patch for the client code to avoid using a broken file is not a crazy solution. cc'ing you here Stephan as I think you know much about this sorta stuff
