There are times when generating a thumbnail/preview
Image on a background thread is useful.  This only requires accessing
resources, but I thought creating and disposing them should work too.

You should create and dispose resources in the UI
thread. This is not 
enforced,
but I believe it is the best practice.

[platform-swt-dev] Resource should be disposed by the thread that creates

Several days ago, I asked one question in this maillist about magical 
dead of Color#dispose() & Image#dispose().

In platform gtk2.2.0 + swt3038 ( Redhat Linux 7.2), if one Color/Image
is created in one Thread(Thread A), and it is disposed in another 
Thread(Thread B). It is quite possible that when this Color/Image is 
disposed. the dispose() call will end in dead.

Is it a rule that resource should be disposed by the thread that creates
it?
