Re: how does "stop" work in Nunit GUI?

Hi David,

We plan some improvements for "Stop" but it can never be
perfect since threads don't actually have to stop! NUnit
is actually cancelling your thread, which is pretty
heavy handed and yet - as you have seen - it still may
not stop.

The /real/ solution for this, IMO, is to run tests that
are difficult to stop in a separate process, which can
be killed if necessary. This too is an enhancement we
hope to add to the next release.
