Got this while interacting with the Reviews Navigator:

!MESSAGE Exception: org.eclipse.core.commands.ExecutionException: No activeWorkbenchWindow found while executing org.eclipse.mylyn.reviews.r4e.ui.commands.addChildElement
!STACK 0
org.eclipse.core.commands.ExecutionException: No activeWorkbenchWindow found while executing org.eclipse.mylyn.reviews.r4e.ui.commands.addChildElement
	at org.eclipse.ui.handlers.HandlerUtil.noVariableFound(HandlerUtil.java:41)
	at org.eclipse.ui.handlers.HandlerUtil.getVariableChecked(HandlerUtil.java:90)
	at org.eclipse.ui.handlers.HandlerUtil.getActiveWorkbenchWindowChecked(HandlerUtil.java:211)
	at org.eclipse.mylyn.reviews.r4e.ui.commands.AddChildElementHandler.execute(AddChildElementHandler.java:111)
	
	
Consider using WorkbenchUtil.getShell() instead.

This exception is valid and could happen.  We now trap the exception and deal with it internally.
