Every so often, the exception below occurs. It is not reliably reproducible with an exact test case. Looking at the source code
in java.awt.EventQueue line 251, I notice that there is a blind
cast:
            return (EventQueueListener) removeInternal(l, oldl);
For whatever reason, this cast is sometimes not valid.

It doesn't seem to disrupt the application, but it is disturbing to see it.

Exception occurred during event dispatching.
