I cannot say how serious it is without debugging it.Well... using VisualGST's Sender tool gives quite a lot of those buggers between entering a character and updating the list box. I haven't looked at the code, but it might give you a hint.
Turns out it's a bug in VisualGST, Gwen analyzed it. Since most code (including Seaside) does not use finalizers, but GTK+ does, I now feel safe changing it to "This is usually caused by bugs in Smalltalk code." :-)
