/**
 * EventDispatchThread is a package-private AWT class which takes
 * events off the EventQueue and dispatches them to the appropriate
 * AWT components.
 *
 * The Thread starts a "permanent" event pump with a call to
 * pumpEvents(Conditional) in its run() method. Event handlers can choose to
 * block this event pump at any time, but should start a new pump (<b>not</b>
 * a new EventDispatchThread) by again calling pumpEvents(Conditional). This
 * secondary event pump will exit automatically as soon as the Condtional
 * evaluate()s to false and an additional Event is pumped and dispatched.

     *      <tt>Throwable</tt>, and
     * <li> Invoke the handler's <tt>handle</tt> method, passing it the
     *      <tt>thrown</tt> argument that was passed to this method.
