Hello, Alexey.
Your test does not test the JFileChooser hang, because the bug is reproducible only in plugin mode where TK thread doesn't
have an AppContext and we update the ThemeReader on the Toolkit thread. Your test runs in standalone mode
where completely different codepath is used. So I suggest either remove the test or update it to emulate multi-appcontext
environment. Please see test/javax/swing/JComponent/8043610/bug8043610.java for an example on how to emulate this.
Otherwise the fix looks good assuming the JPRT job runs fine.
With best regards. Petr.
