[Bug 432677] Re: Java JComboBox callback freezes Xorg

 

I've just tested the code attached here with this option Dave told us.
It works. Nothing freezes but the application itself.

Thus, it's definitely not a bug in Xorg or any driver. The problem is in Java implementation for Linux.

I don't agree with their solution though. It's ugly but acceptable to
ask a developer to use this option when debugging an application. The
problem is that when a buggy application freezes in a combobox callback,
it freezes the whole system to the normal user.

What is the downside of making this option true by default?
