fix: do not crash on use close menu

maartenbreddels · maartenbreddels · commit d0032943e9cb · 2025-08-05T16:27:50.000+02:00
This is more of a workaround than a fix.
But in certain cases (I suspect multiple rerenders) use get_widget
call fails. This workaround did not cause the hook not to work,
which confirms the suspiction.
This is hard to debug, so this is a good enough fix for now.
