Mode lines of non-selected windows could fail to update when they
should (e.g., if the buffer displayed in a non-selected window
changes), tool-bar buttons that change their appearance depending on
the Emacs state (e.g., the "Copy" button becomes sensitive only when
there's region) could fail to react to state changes, menu-bar items
that depend on modes and global state could fail to update.  That sort
of bugs.
