NERDTree.TreeNotOpen thrown when opening Neovim into NERDTree

First reported as a comment to #1347 and moved here per @rzvxa.

I don't know when it started happening (it was a few weeks ago I feel), or whether it's the same issue, but I am getting a similar error. When I launch directly into NERDTree with nvim . and then open a file with s, it produces this error:

Error detected while processing function nerdtree#ui_glue#invokeKeyMap[1]..76[18]..75[3]..<SNR>29_openVSplit[1]..105[1]..121[3]..177[6]..178[9]..172[3]..176[16]..218[1]..228[2]..function nerdtre

line    2:
E605: Exception not caught: NERDTree.TreeNotOpen

Note that this only errors with s, not with i, and only when launching directly into nvim ., not when explicitly firing up NERDTree after Neovim via nvim -c ':NERDTree'.

I have also observed this on a Mac
