What if the gtk_widget_destroy() finishes and returns before the CM callback
happens? For example, if the CM events are suspended, the CM system will cache
the event and then return, causing gtk_widget_destroy() to finish. Then later
when the events are resumed it will call the CM callback which will call
gtk_widget_destroy() on the already-freed widget. Wouldn't that be a problem?
