I haven't done that because I thought I would post it here first and
see if somebody had similar experiences.

I can reproduce it fairly regularly although I have taken to logging
out of the remote sessions immediately after I am done to avoid the
problem. I'll install wireshark and see if I can get a capture
tomorrow.

To me the problem smells like a threading issue. The connection is
timing out and blocking the entire app and the gui locks up until the
timeout exceeds and the app is responsive again. Unfortunately the
timeout seems to be set to something really long.
