This doesn't really answer your question but: if you specify
Load.ASYNCHRONOUS instead of Load.ALL in the QueryDescriptor for your QDS,
you also get a thread spun off for you in the background, to do the loading.
This can lead to problems of its own too (in particular, some UI components
might need to be disabled until the load finishes), but might be less of a
headache than SwingWorker, since you're using a QDS anyway.
