Cannot read properties of null (reading 'file')

[mchestnut]

When using this plugin in a Vue environment, occasionally I'll receive an error of "Cannot read properties of null (reading 'file')" when the component using FilePond is destroyed. This only occurs when a file has been added to FilePond.

I've traced the error to line 142 of filepond-plugin-image-overlay.js:
if (!isImage(item.file) || root.rect.element.hidden) return;

I'm not sure what createRoute (line 134) is doing, but perhaps the solution is to return if item is falsy? In my testing that works, but not sure if that has any repercussions.

Potential fix
filepond-plugin-image-overlay.js, line 142
if (!item || !isImage(item.file) || root.rect.element.hidden) return;
