Have a look at the output of the toSpecifier() method.

When the scripting engine talks to InDesign, it uses something close to that data to address the object. This might be the name (for file based objects such as documents, books, libraries), the ID within such a document, or in the case of preferences, a named property of the application. Have a look at a few samples in ESTK, use the console there.

If the criteria changes ( object removed, renamed or closed ) this should turn into an invalid reference in ESTK object browser - the red circle on the triangle. You probably found a place in the execution chain where someone failed to check for this possibility.
