> Concurrency is one of the more simple, academic issues What are you doing? Do you wanna.. tempt the wrath of the whatever from high atop the thing? :D
Concurrency is many things, simple ain't one of them. That's the very reason academia is *still* (60 years(?) later) trying to solve it. Anyways, I sort of see your point. For the average desktop app it does not seem like much of an issue. Except.. have you ever used AWT or Swing? Try to find a Swing sample out there that does not initialize the JFrame on the main thread. That's unsafe code[1], but nobody notices or cares. Ideally the compiler would tell you, but the runtime telling you would be good enough for me. (Incidentally, the runtime will tell you with the right aspects.
