Link to test case: https://live.datatables.net/clone/7948/edit
Error messages shown: Uncaught TypeError: can't convert null to object
Description of problem: I would like to enable moving through rows using the arrow keys. However, when keys=true and I try to create a state in search builder, the error message above is shown in the browsers console which prevents loading of my website upon refresh. When keys=false, everything works as expected. The error also occurs with various older versions of datatables and plugins!

    Hi,

    Thanks so much for the test case! The error is in how StateRestore checks if a saved state matches the current state. KeyTable can have a null value, which StateRestore isn't correctly handling.

    I've committed a fix which is now in the nightly build and with that the example works as expected.

    Brilliant, thanks a lot!!
    The nightly also seems to work with my slightly older setup:
    dt-1.13.6/b-2.4.1/date-1.5.1/fc-4.3.0/fh-3.4.0/kt-2.10.0/r-2.4.1/sc-2.2.0/sb-1.6.0/sp-1.4.0/sl-1.7.0

    Yes, StateRestore still works with DataTables 1.x. It doesn't use any of the 2.x APIs yet.
