REALMS-202Connection problem - seems to be caused by crash during Nether Portal transit
Started happening occasionally on v0.16.0, but is now happening most of the time (but not always) with v0.16.1. When I try to join the Realms, it goes through the connection dialogs as normal. But once it connects, no display pops up. The slowly panning background image is all I can see. Hitting Esc several times flashes the menu buttons, but they have no text and disappear before I can click on them.
The game appears to be connected. As in, one time when it did allow me to connect, I didn't seem to be in the same location I'd been when I logged off, as if the keystrokes I'd submitted earlier had been received.
May or may not be related - twice it's crashed when going through Nether portals. The display problem seems to be when my location is in or near a Nether portal. But that may be just a coincidence.
None of the open issues appear to be similar to this, but sorry if I missed one.

I swapped to my son's account, and was able to log in.
I logged my son's account in on the Android tablet, and mine on the Win10 PC. Son's account could see me standing in a Nether Portal. Commands were being sent, and I was able to back out of it using the tablet to watch where I was going. Closing MCPE on Win10 and reopening it, I was able to connect and log in and play normally.
So the issue does appear to be that it crashes occasionally when going thru a Nether Portal, and if you are in a Nether Portal when logging in, the display never successfully opens up.
I don't know if this is related, but when you step through a Nether Portal, you can't see anything but swirling purple until you walk away. Too bad for you if the Nether Portal happens to be over a drop into lava. In 0.15, the swirling purple would eventually fade, but in 0.16 so far, it never does.
