Hi Andreas,

Since I updated my GNUstep install to use latest svn (r26829), I have  
observed a problem that could be related: UI controls can weirdly  
start to refuse input or focus. For example in Gorm inspectors, text  
fields seem to refuse editing time to time. At this point, quitting  
Gorm doesn't solve it, but killing gpbs and relaunching Gorm does, as  
if gpbs was corrupted or crashed. I haven't submitted a bug report  
yet, because I only got it two or three times for now, and gpbs may  
have nothing to do with it.

Cheers,
Quentin.
