Freezes on empty action payload

Hi,

This one is weird. When using an action creator with an empty payload created using redux-actions, the application badly fails and freezes.

import { createAction } from 'redux-actions';
// dispatching this will freeze the app
const myEmtpyPayloadAction = createAction('HI');

No payload field is still FSA-compliant, so this should’n’t happen. I can’t tell where this freeze however.

This happens when the serializer chokes on bad input. Most likely you’ve attached a DOM event to your action. When these hit the IPC serializer, (I suspect because of the cycles in the object-graph of events), the serializer hangs.

For instance, if you

<button onClick={dispatchSomeAction}>do something?</button>
//calls dispatchSomeAction(clickEvent)... now our payload is a DOM event

instead of

<button onClick={() => dispatchSomeAction()}>do something?</button>
//definitely no payload

you’ll blow up the serialization process.

Thanks for the input! Feel free to reopen if @biggyspender’s hint didn’t work for you.
