Assumptions are evil. I'm not familiar with Cocoa or NSWorkspace, but I
wouldn't expect anything to hang there and wait while an application was
being launched. That process can take as long as 30 seconds for some of the
launch hogs -- more if the disk is being accessed a lot by other
applications at the time -- and I wouldn't expect my application to be
frozen for 30 seconds or more waiting for another application to launch.
