Review request for Amarok.


Description
-------

This patch fixes issue https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=295275; here is
a discussion from #amarok:

[15:41:30] <stilor> Sentynel: could you reproduce if the processEvents() loop 
is removed from AmarokMimeData::tracks()?
[15:42:43] <stilor> idea is, drag-n-drop, AFAIU is two events, "drag" and 
"drop". The 1st event is fetched before CollectionTreeView::dragEnterEvent is 
called
[15:42:58] <Sentynel> sounds plausible, let's have a look
[15:43:10] <stilor> so this processEvents() loop fetches the "drop" event for 
which it doesn't have source
[15:44:45] <stilor> I played aggressively with my mouse for a few minutes and 
can't get it to crash anymore
[15:44:56] <Sentynel> yeah I can't get it to crash either
[15:45:04] <Sentynel> so the next question is, why is that code there in the 
first place
[15:45:39] <stilor> I have no idea, I didn't look into Amarok code until two 
days ago ;)
[15:45:49] <Sentynel> whatever it is it's been there since 2007
[15:48:05] <stilor> yeah, I found the commit but the message doesn't say 
anything about why nested event processing is needed
[15:51:15] <Sentynel> well, it doesn't seem to break anything as far as I can 
tell...
[15:51:29] <Sentynel> my suggestion would be to submit a review request for 
taking that loop out
[15:51:33] <Sentynel> and see if anybody else has any ideas why it's there
[15:54:01] <Sentynel> the other thing that works is changing 
QEventLoop::AllEvents to QEventLoop::ExcludeUserInputEvents
[15:54:22] <Sentynel> which stops the crash and should theoretically still let 
it process whatever events it was trying to process
[15:54:51] <Sentynel> but I'd rather get rid of that code block entirely if 
it's not doing anything useful


This addresses bug 295275.
