I am seeing some code in Eclipse that is blocking the UI-Thread by accessing the filesystem or the network, probably because the developer did not get a warning from SWT when developing it.

I would like that SWT warns if some code is blocking the main thread in SWT

I would like to see https://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/StrictMode.html for SWT.
