This one is definitely the most serious, because "unexpected async reply"
errors can also make other applications crash (if the user does a copy&paste
for example).

#91157 is also pretty annoying and likely requires hacking at C level.

Many of the listed bugs can possibly be better be fixed in SWT than in
Albireo. Also, the single-event-thread goal will certainly also require
us to ask modifications (for openness) from the SWT team.
