If I modify a model, say an AbstractTableModel, in a thread, and then call
firePropertyChange or fireTableDataChanged, will the subsequent repaint
happen in the AWT thread, or do I have to use SwingUtilities.invokeLater
to fire the change in the AWT thread?

Also, are Swing and AWT smart enough to merge redundant property changes,
so if I call fireTableDataChanged 1000 times while the AWT thread is doing
something else, it will only repaint the table once?
