WId seems to be valid. If I check the dialog with xwininfo before closing plasmoidviewer it shows the same ID.

Here is a full backtrace of it being needed: http://pastebin.kde.org/pxjhgw95d

I can guard against it inside plasma with 
if (!QApplication::closingDown()) around the KWindowEffects calls.

I changed to guarding in the library as I can imagine others hitting it in the future and in general library code shouldn't crash on reasonable inputs.
