I had opened the root script node from www.google.ca in an editor, and hovering would produce the given NPE constantly. I will attach the script.
That is a very unusual spot for a NPE. My guess is this has something to do with your project set up. Please explain your set up.

Created attachment 171674 [details] patch - added null checks
This happens when not in a JS project because it cannot resolve the Array type leading to the NPE. If we can't resolve the Array type we need to make sure ArrayBinding does not throw NPE's.
Approving, but should ArrayBinding#getInferredType() ever return null?
Patch checked in. Not sure getInferredType should ever return null. Probably not, but at least it won't throw a NPE for now.
