I had a similar problem in my AE93, it would occasionally just jerk while driving along, then after a while it became dying briefly then coming to life again almost straight away. It only happened rarely, but once it died and i had to pull over and restart it i decided it might be about time to try and find the problem.
It took me fucken weeks to sort it out, and by then it had gotten to the point that it wouldn't always start again, or was regularly 'jerking' as it died and restarted instantly. What it turned out to be was the contacts in the ignition switch had worn so sometimes the circuit would break, and the weight of the keys was moving it just enough.
I'd say the other possible reasons are more likely, but when all else fails (like it did for me) look there. I finally discovered it because when it was idling and i tapped the keys with a screwdriver, the engine missed maybe a quarter of the time. I wasn't convinced, but a $5 part (on the bottom of the ignition barrel) and it hasn't done it since.
