Hello,

is there some way to temporarily run a function on the main stack? I 
played around a bit, but failed ultimately since the first stub function 
to be called is getting a "null" context which I assume to be only a 
valid "return-context".

We're facing a problem where a dialog run modally inside a context runs 
webkit, which triggers garbage collection, which fails miserably since 
it assumes we're on the "native" stack. If it were possible to run 
something "on-top" of the main stack, this could maybe be circumvented.

Thank you,
Michael
