Description
There is an issue where 1.8.11 seems to be setting some UI elements in a background thread.
This is new to me, I recently updated the IDE to the latest version.
Attached is the crash log. It happens soon after I launch the Tool ESP Exception Decoder

Research direction
Start by reviewing ArduinioCrashMac.txt and reproducing the crash shortly after launching the ESP Exception Decoder in Arduino IDE 1.8.11. Investigate the reported background-thread UI activity; done means the tool no longer crashes the IDE during launch.
