Hi Guys, I reasoned a bit more about that issue, so just FYC, here's what I came up with: OsBlock/Release are used for two related, but different issues: Suppress event _enqueueing_ or suppress event _processing_. I think that it makes sense to split those two blocking behaviors, since the former may be cheaper and more common. Also, in the long run, OsBlockSignals() is becoming a very misleading name.
