[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #52804] "Interruptible" and "BusyAction" properties

[Pantxo Diribarne]

Follow-up Comment #5, bug #52804 (project octave):

@Rik: the behavior you describe is ridiculously complicated for property
listeners. 

In fact I am now pretty sure "interruptible" should not apply to property
listener callbacks: 
* all the examples provided in the ML doc only refer to regular callbacks
("XXXfcn", or "callback" properties), which are almost all triggered by user
interaction, thus from the GUI thread
* property listerners are a more general concept in ML [1] since you can apply
them to any classdef handle object, with or wo an "interruptible" property.

I am in favor of backing out the cset.
