You're completely right, GUIs should never hang, that's what we have
threads for. Luckily, a lot of work is being done upstream now with the
GSoC, particularly on media devices [1]. I didn't catch what version of
Amarok you were running that had this issue, though.
Could you please try updating to the latest Amarok in the -backports
repository [2] and reporting back with the Amarok version (''apt-cache
policy amarok'') and whether the GUI still badly hangs? Thanks!
