--- Comment #3 from Michael Haubenwallner <michael.haubenwallner at ssi-schaefer.com> ---
Agreed, such a change should not be shipped in a minor version.

Further thought: To allow for applications to recognize as early as possible, does initializeMainThread() assert for Thread 1 as well?

But then: Right now, Eclipse calls initializeMainThread() in Thread 2 here, and I would really be surprised if Eclipse ever has done that in Thread 1.

So while I understand/agree to use GTK/WebKit/SWT within one single thread only, I don't get the reason for why this has to be Thread 1.

Also, we do have some SWT/GTK application here in production for years, and the gdb-breakpoint in gtk_main_iteration_do() is fired in Thread 51 this time.

So yes, I would say GTK in no way does require the UI thread to be Thread 1.
