      I was getting intermittent test crashes, I tracked this
      to the fact that the JDI VMDeathEvent effectively has a suspend
      policy of SUSPEND_NONE, it was originally intended to have
      a SUSPEND_ALL policy. Result is there is no way to safely sync
      SUSPEND_NONE events before VM termination; That is, there is
      no way to be sure that all the events in the event stream are
      processed before the connection goes away; This is not a
      problem for SUSPEND_ALL events since they sync themselves.

      it is also a problem for any client debugger with asynchronous
      operation, since there is no way to prevent operations after
      VMDeath and thus also no way to prevent operations after
      VMDisconnect.
