1. Install 'Eclipse XSL Developer Tools' from the Indigo site.
2. Restart when prompted.
3. Put some text in your clipboard.
4. Open the 'Snippets' view.
5. Ctrl+F10 > Paste as Snippet...
6. You are prompted for a category name, put something in.
7. Now you get a 'Customize Palette' dialog. Clear the 'Name:', 'Description:' and the 'Template:' section. You should now have a red 'X' at the top.
8. Now click the 'Delete' button in the top right hand corner.
9. You will now be in an infinite error dialog loop.

Marking as critical since I am forced to kill Eclipse, which implies data loss if I have dirty parts lying around.

By clearing the problem when deleting the palette entry, the dialog is prevented from being displayed repeatedly.
