Okay so my suggestion would break this kind of code.  Maybe we make the
change later, though?  It seems reasonable to have code that should work
from either the UI thread or another thread, and for such code the
change would let you call addDeferredUIMessage: and be done with it.

Okydoke, coming out in a second.  Incidentally, there's a LOT of cut and
paste going on in these methods.  I also found an instance of the roblem
in the FTP code of ServerDirectory, and changed the code in that place,
too.

I've only briefly tested this, but it seems to be okay.
