I'm all for discouraging sync use in the main thread after the application is up, but are stalled applications actually a wide spread problem? I don't really remember any apps I use regularly locking up (except for maybe hexchat when connecting to my irc proxy). Granted, it's harder to notice these days now that we have a compositor and applications don't need to redraw after getting uncovered, so it could be it's happening more than is obvious. But, I just wonder if we really need to do anything. It seems like the bad/obvious cases would get bug reports and fixes pretty quickly, and so the problem should regulate itself.
