Starting a new script has a chance to throw a "Unable to aquire writer lock" error, which can occasionally crash the client itself.

I'm seeing this issue as well, especially when a script launches another script.

I've definitely also seen this mostly in the cases of scripts starting other scripts.

Seems like this one is on the form itself and is probably related to merging the two lists together

I wonder though, if the UI freeze itself could actually be related to the way that Genie is handling exceptions in general?

Exceptions tend to be expensive in general, looks like c# is no, uh, exception:

"exceptions are at least 30,000 times slower than return codes" - source

Quick note that I can actually replicate this behavior in the original genie client if I launch scripts from scripts using put .myscript but not when using send .myscript. But in our fork, I'm seeing the issue with send .myscript as well.
