And this useful nuance is good when one is ready to delve into the 
fine points.

There are GUI calls that are thread-safe, or so the Javadocs claim. It is 
relatively harmless as a rule of thumb, however, to assume none are 
until one is confident of the difference. Much as I buy my mushrooms 
in the grocery store, otherwise I assume all I find are toxic absent greater 
expertise than mine.

Furthermore, drawing on a BufferedImage is a graphical action, but not 
/per se/ a GUI one. Transferring that BufferedImage to a JComponent is 
a GUI action.
