Description Sven Gothel 2010-11-24 05:54:23 CET 
FF3/FF4 x32/x64 win7: Browser freezes when using NEWT/Applet.

It seems that the NEWT EDT does not consume and handle the native window events,
hence the browser becomes non responsive.

The freeze happens whenever there is a FF window change.
I could 'postpone it' .. while disabling the Java console, then it seems to work 1st.
Switch to a different FF tab .. and the freeze happens.

Works .. side effect of runaway shared dummy window
