Chris Aldi has put a lot of work into fixing this problem. Personally,
I haven't seen it since the early days of ClassAct, months ago. The
problem is stack. Since input handling happens in input.device, a
complex BOOPSI gadget such as chooser can take quite a bit of stack,
and input.device only has very little of it available. Since chooser
opens a borderless window when you click on the "main bar", any hacks
that affect OpenScreenTagList() stack usage will also risk a crash
here. A future version of chooser will most likely switch the
input.device stack to a larger one for the duration of chooser input
procession to avoid this problem.
