Anivia, Egg, and the code that handles item/ability spamming during CC

Today, I was playing an ARAM as Anivia and the other team had a Fiddlesticks. I knew I was about to get feared and then probably killed, so I was mashing my Seraph's Embrace button, but the fear happened first and I died during its duration. I got a bit of a saving grace in that I ended up in egg form and there was no one on the enemy team to kill me a second time. I resurrected, but then a bad interaction with Anivia and the ability/CC handling code occurred.

Currently, the game is coded to make sure that anything you're spamming while you're CC'd happens immediately as CC ends. This includes on-use items, summoners, and regular abilities. For Anivia, this code continues to be in effect if she died and became an egg while CC'd. Sure enough, after I res'd from the egg, my Seraph's went off even though I had long stopped trying to use it. Ended up dying later because my Seraph's was on CD when I needed it again.
