To give a little more context. JavaFX is apartment threaded with well
documented rules for threaded. These rules were not enforced in code.
Glass, the low level window component for FX is not enforcing apartment
threading. Since Glass has no public API, the only way that an
application can be affected is if it is coded such that it access Glass
through FX from a non-UI thread. FX itself contained code some code
that did this this code has been fixed.
Thread checking is goodness and leads to consistent applications with
repeatable behavior. Thread checking in Glass is a good first step
forward in this area.
