Research direction

Start with the reported stack trace in out/extension.js, focusing on the putMulticursorRegister and put entry points. Reproduce the failure with key=s and gather the missing steps or context needed to identify the triggering command; done means the error no longer occurs in that scenario and the behavior is covered by an appropriate regression check.
