It still very much concerns me that we fallback to "workarounds" before we 
understand what the issue is. I thought Bob had some information previously 
that suggested posting messages to quit was wrong or something. I honestly 
don't remember the details but I thought we had a better idea of the root 
solution.

It has something to do with loading the theme. I've submitted

to work around the issue by not loading the theme if no UI is to be displayed.
