Description Michael Rennie CLA 2015-03-04 21:28:44 EST 
Consider the following snippet:

/* eslint-disable no-unused-vars */
var o = {
    a: function a() {
        var that = this;
        return function() {
            that.b();
            that.
        };
    },
    b: function b() {
        //
    }
};

Saving it causes an exception to be thrown, which is trapped by the rule and swallowed silently. Here is the trapped exception:

"TypeError: Cannot read property 'name' of null
