Still having this in 10.13.2 (and with a kernel panic error report when I restart).

If it were supposed to be like this, my computer wouldn't display a "your computer shut down because of a problem..." kernel panic error message and report when I turn it back on.
I'm also still having this issue on a new MacBook Pro Retina 15" 2015 after installing 10.13.2. Apple have me troubleshooting if it's being caused by my USB 3 hub or an external hard drive. Of course the fault is predictably intermittent, so I can't pin it down to something. I'm heartened in a way that I'm not the only one as I wondered whether it was a hardware issue with my new computer and whether I should take it back to the Apple Store for an exchange/refund. I don't really want to spend half my time messing around resetting NVRAM and plugging and unplugging external drives. Surely a new machine should be able to cope with having a couple of external peripherals connected!
