Someone can correct me if wrong here. Not a Swing guru.
But if you are talking about SwingUtilities I believe this means the
code will run on the dreaded EDT - event dispatcher thread, AKA the
main thread. So this means the code will be scheduled to run on the
EDT thread, in the meantime the current thread will stop and wait
until the invoke completes. Possibly dangerous if you are on another
event related (current) thread, you might slow down or lock up the
GUI/application, the invokeLater method - running asynchronously, is
more usual I think.
