Hi,

In the following sequence of events:
1. Start a new thread (as a result of a button click - or similar).
2. User changes the screen orientation (causing the Activity that
started the thread to be destroyed).
3. Thread finishes, and wants to do some dialog (or any UI) work.
However, doing a showDialog, dismissDialog, ... will crash, as the
thread it still referring to the old Activity.

This can be solved by updating the data in the thread to refer to the
new Activity upon a screen orientation change.

However, couldn't the Android framework just forward any requests from
a destroyed activity, to the newly created Activity, saving us
developers the pain of handling it ourselves?

Thanks.
