I found that
with anything that uses the pasteboards (in this case the drag
pasteboard),
it is possible to bring down the system big time. I was messing it
up so
bad that I was unable to quit or force quit ANY application or
restart from
the menu. The only way out was to force a reboot from the power
button on
my new MacBook Pro.
I fear that someone might be able to exploit this to install a
rogue
background application that would make the machine unusable. I
would hope
that there might be some way to protect against this.
This is serious. What was the bug number you got when you reported it
at bugreport.apple.com?
