I tried it on Ubuntu. Sometimes when I select text in the Daemon log window it crashes. Then bitmonerod becomes a zombie process

I can't get it to transfer MRO either, and don't know why because there isn't any output in the wallet log window.

Thanks for the feedback! The transfer should work now (redownload the files from the link in my previous post).

I have been able to reproduce the crash when selecting log text (very weird, nothing special happens there so it seems this is one of the quircks where mono behaves differently from the .net framework). I will look into this (might be I just have to disable selecting text and add a copy to clipboard button to get around the problem).

TL;DR: There should be a wrapper called 'Launcher' for the GUI which kills all the related processes if the Client crashes.

This could be a solution, but I prefer it if I could prevent crashes al together. I think that should be the the goal instead of adding another process which monitors other processes.

Well yeah, you're right, but it could be used for prevention of bad stuff happening on PCs of non-tech-savvy people who don't know how the GUI's process wrapping works. Every application which depends on an internet connection should be handled very carefully. I have been using the concept of Launcher in EECloud, and it just worked like charm.

I know that in the long term, we are all going for perfectionism, but we can never be sure whether a new daemon version released silently contains message modifications which our Clients cannot handle correctly.

At the time of writing this post, I'm in the middle of creating a debug window in order to easily track and hunt down bugs, and reduce the amount of redundant calls (for example, refer to the case of trying to refresh the wallet while the daemon is busy).
