@manfeed - Apologies, I didn't realise that it had already been fixed recently. That'd be why I wasn't seeing the issue - I'm on Omega nightlies.
So for the sake of everyone in this thread -- the solution is:
There is no reason to be editing python files in skinshortcuts, especially if you don't understand the code you are editing.
If you want to override ActivateWindow(favourites) shortcuts that can be done in the overrides.xml file
So for the sake of everyone in this thread -- the solution is:
- Upgrade to latest Omega nightlies where the NUL termination issue is fixed.
- Add a new favourite to force the favourites.xml file to rewrite without the NUL termination.
- Restart Kodi and then open skinshortcuts.

xml:
<override action="ActivateWindow(favourites)">
<action>ActivateWindow(favouritesbrowser)</action>
</override>
