Hey all, A bit of a question about philosophy. One of the things that really interested me when I saw that SWTBot dispatches events directly to the widgets themselves (vs. the Display) is the idea that perhaps tests could be run in the "background" --- which is to say without requiring keyboard focus or control of the mouse. This is a perk since it means one can run tests while continuing to code, check mail, etc. Is this a desired property? In practice, I'm seeing some things in the implementation (notably how the "active shell" is derived) that pull against this idea so I wonder if I was just under a mistaken impression. Anyway, I'm curious if this is a feature that is even on the radar. Do other folks think this would be valuable? General thoughts?
