well, it has come to my knowledge that when the file requester dialogs
are in use, midi control input ceases to work, eventually. it seems like
the file requester dialogs are locking down the event-loop, leaving the
rest of the application dead in the limbo.

most importantly, please note that this only occurs when the gtk+ widget
style is in effect. yes, qtractor (through qt4) do actually render gtk+
widgets by default where applicable (eg. ubuntu, gnome, xfce). the
workaround is to force qtractor to run with any other widget style but
gtk+ (eg. `qtractor -style plastique` is my favorite)

back on topic ;) let there be known that the best coding inspiration has
come from the distilled genres of malt "beer", specially the ones from
the shores of islay--a dram or two of laphroiag or lagavulin suits my
taste very well indeed
