Description
**Describe the bug**
I have an app with a complex initialization which takes around 5 seconds. I am registration a couple of singeltons in `getIt`. Since the Android Studio plugin pulls the data too early everything breaks for me.
**To Reproduce**
```dart
MultiProvider(
providers: [
ChangeNotifierProvider(
// normally this method gets invoked after App() is created
create: (_) => getIt(), // this crashes and causes also a bug in flutter #166572
),
],
child: FutureBuilder(
future: longRunningInitFuture(),
builder: (context, snapshot) {
if (snapshot.connectionState == ConnectionState.done && snapshot.data == true) {
return const App();
} else {
return const SplashScreen();
}
},
),
)
```
When I try to consume the `Example` class like this:
```dart
Consumer(
builder: (context, example, _) {
// never called
}
)
```
Then I get strange exceptions within the widget tree. See the https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/166572 for details.
**Expected behavior**
I do not expect that the Flutter DevTools Extension collects the data without any interaction from me.
**Known workarounds**
Disable the extension and enable it only when required after start of the app
