    Description

      Since QCocoaEventDispatcher::processEvents() resets the interrupt state, this may prevent a higher level event loop from returning.

      For example, calling Menu::exec() and, as a result of an action being triggered, the application calls QCoreApplication::processEvents() after QMenu::hideEvent(). In this case, the menu event loop can be stuck until we run another event loop.

      See attached example. Click the button and wait until "Done looping" is printed (As things are, it won't until you exit the app).
