Well, I believe that the thermal visor glitch has been fairly well documented, but what about other potential problem-spots when sequence breaking? I don't know if these have been documented in other places besides here, but I figured that if anyone's ever run across any major problems, there should be a place to make note of them. To start things off, I've got one that I've encountered two or three times, so it seems at least mildly consistent.

After using the track jump or TBJ trick to get up the spider-ball track and into the furnace early, it's a bad idea to attempt to continue on to the hall of elders unless you have the wave beam. After going into the second morph ball tunnel and coming out in that short passage that has a wave door, I turned back after realizing that I actually needed that beam to get in; but just before going into the tunnel, the game froze. This has happened decently consistently, so perhaps there are other spots where the code just can't take it any more?
Thread title: 
your game just messed up. theres one other place you have to be careful of. its a room near the gravity suit where you melt ice on the roof to get to a missile expansion (cant remember the room name). Anyways, if you melt the ice without using the grapple to get the expansion and leave the room, the next time you enter the room, the grapple wont work. There is a way, i think, to get it if you have done this, but if i recall correctly, its not easy.
PAGE BREAKER
Ready and willing.
There's like a page for this on the main site, but only the thermal visor thing has a write-up.

That's Gravity Chamber, the room where you get the Gravity Suit.  If you go up out of the water, you can go up to where another door is.  There's ice on the wall.  If you have early Plasma and no Grapple and shoot the ice, you're glitched.  You have to do an L-lock jump as you said but I read that the expansion can even disappear.

Another place is when you fight the Phazon Elite in Elite Research and get the artifact, if you just leave the room instead of getting the artifact, it will disappear for good.
Not exactly game killing but I had the final form of Prime yesterday with no music which was wierd. Also on the same run through when Meta Ridley was flying over on a bombing run I was locked onto him and he froze when we has off in the distance, wings not moving. Then he kind of flickered to where he would have been if he hadnt stopped moving, very wierd.
If the Gravity Chamber glitches, you can Ghetto Jump to the expansion (look under "Techniques" on the Prime sidebar)
my game keeps crashing when i try and go into the furnace, i dont want to restart, but what do i do?
just stick to the sides.. it works for me!  try the morph ball as well :)
