Why is this bad?  It isn't clean, I agree, but what problems would
this cause to Emacs and the user, and why is this worse than the
current situation where Emacs crashes?

But that evidently happens already with other toolkits, doesn't it?
So I guess these forced deletions are very rarely used.

(Btw, I hope I understood correctly what you mean by "former" and
"latter"; if not, please tell explicitly what they are, since the
citations above don't include any two cases to which this could
allude, so I needed to guess.)

Thanks.
