Comment 29 for bug 432677

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?
