swing components are not thread-safe swing not thread-safe

Sun makes the statement: Once a Swing component has been realized, all code that might affect or depend on the state of that component should be executed in the event-dispatching thread. Following this recommandation may cause a lot of additional code, especially when dealing with GUI events, that trigger time consuming tasks. I use to write event-driven programms that works like a state machine: the listener only changes states and NOTHING ELSE. A special thread contains a state event loop does all the task. It also updates Swing components. Is this safe enough? (I never had a problem.)
