Not sure you're understanding what i say, we have an explicit check about
QDialog on stack+exec that says "it will crash if you dbus quit".
What I'm saying is that this doesn't happen anymore and we
should remove that check.
No idea whether there's a special protection on "quit" (eg. to close all modals
first or exit all nested eventloops) but holding a nested eventloop on the stack sounds
dangerous and i'd first
a) test whether this leads to trouble if the parent is deleted other than
through exit.
b) lookup Q(Meta)Object to see whether there's actual code dealing with nested
evetloops on children before deleting them (and re-iterate the potentially
collapsed children list)
For at least QObject API for 5.1 says that this is a stupid idea.
c) otherwise alter the warning to "Warning: do not enter nested eventloops on
children on the stack unless you really know what you're doing!" - or any degree of
further scariness.
