I don't think that other programs are protected from UAEs in one
application, since an UAE can easily crash the *entire* Windows system
if it's serious enough.

is to run the app being developed under a debugger. This way,
*none* of my programming mistakes were able to affect other apps, and
Windows continued to run as well, certainly.
