commit 3a36edf68e555ef5bf3dbac0c133b2c99b36ef24
Author: Jan-Marek Glogowski <glogow at fbihome.de>
Date:   Tue Sep 5 18:54:49 2017 +0200

    OSX revert fix for i#90083
    
    Part of commit d6f7c94e5c27ba02ff5c3229760c9808cc9b5bea
    
    At least on my current OSX box application based window switching
    "just works" "out of the box", even without the code.
    
    With the replacement of the list with a set, the result is probably
    also a bit unexpected.

commit b022bb9ef4ef6dfff2ea97462cb081b8681513a2
Author: Jan-Marek Glogowski <glogow at fbihome.de>
Date:   Tue Aug 29 10:29:51 2017 +0200

    Unify Reschedule implementation and usage
    
    Application::Reschedule(true) should process just all currently
    pending events and ignore all newly generated events when
    processing them.
    
    This way we also can drop nMaxEvents from the Windows backend. This
    limit was also never implemented on OSX and for the KDE4 backend
    it's actually impossible to handle single events.
    
    Also changes various call sites to just process all pending events
    instead of some made of number of times.

+The idea is to use g_main_context_prepare and keep the max_priority as an
+indicator. We cannot prevent running newer lower events, but we can prevent
+running new higher events, which should be sufficient for most stuff.
+
+This also touches user event processing, which currently runs as a high
+priority idle in the event loop.
+
+== Drop nMaxEvents from gen (X11) backend ==
+
+A few layers of indirection make this code hard to follow. The SalXLib::Yield
+and SalX11Display::Yield architecture makes it impossible to process just the
+current events. This really needs a refactorung and rearchitecture step, which
+will also affect the Gtk+ and KDE4 backend for the user event handling.

    Don't wait-yield non-main threads in the main thread
    
    This prevents blocking the main thread by a yielding non-main thread.
    The current solution is to wait on a condition, which is set by the
    main thread on wakeup.

    WIN run main thread redirects ignoring SolarMutex
    
    This way we can drop all the special nReleased handling. Instead we use
    the same mechanism as on Mac, where we keep the lock, but disable it for
    the main thread. As a security measure we assert on duplicate redirects,
    which should not happen.
    
    As a result we can't use SendMessage on the main thread itself, which
    would normally just call the WinProc directly. This could be accomplished
    by converting the redirect bool into a counter, which should be safe, as
    no other thread could acquire the SolarMutex, as we don't release it.
