True. It would be better to have a custom dialog - but from a signal

Where did you find that?

Well, I guess a crash is a crash. So maybe unreliable ist acceptable if it
works most of the time. After all a crash *should* be an edge case that
does not happen too often.

Maybe this could be done from another process?
