That is simple enough, but it will catch fewer problems than a
check before every gui call.

It has worked out great for me. I was converting a debugger
from EDT-only to having a separate, dedicated debugger
thread. So in addition to checking that gui calls only come
from the EDT, I also needed to verify that all JDI calls
come from the debugger thread. The tests also turned up a
few EDT violations in the software that were totally
unrelated to the debugger.
