[Test Case] * Not reproducable so far. [Regression Potential] * Worst case is that somehow HUD doesn't work on the desktop and phone. * There are, obviously, extensive unit and functional tests to verify this doesn't happen. [Other Info] * The patch will report the offending application to errors.ubuntu.com with all available debugging information. * The indexes are now range checked before processing. As soon as a window sends any invalid message it is blocked. * Further hardening around the memory management in QtGMenu has been carried out. * The change is not as large as it at first appears. The majority of the diff is simply replacing Type* with QSharedPointer<Type>. The rest is the extra code for reporting the recoverable problem.
