[Comment from a bug triager]
- What third-party (or non-official) plasma widgets do you use ?

For me it was fancytasks that was causing this crash.

I loaded KDE (with crashed plasma), uninstalled fancytasks plasmoid RPM, started plasma-desktop from konsole without any issues.
Logged out, back in, plasma starts normally. There is a plasmoid box with an error message where fancytasks used to be. Get rid of it and it's all back to normal.

Still, I think it would be nice if plasma-desktop caught the exception and disabled the rogue plasmoid automatically (informing user of the event, of course).

Un-installing fancytasks worked for me ad well thanks for the tip...
