This posting is about what appears to be a 1.0 IB bug.
I still think it's worth posting -- just in case this bug hasn't been fixed yet.

BUG:
I'm working on a large project. (Lots of modules, nibs, etc.)
I'm also using quite a few icons in the nib files.
IB sometimes dies when I drag a tiff file from the browser into the icon suitcase.
Actually, it's not just IB crashing -- the whole cube locks up and I have to reboot.
Needless to say, this is a truly marvellous bug, since I am absolutely unable to
reproduce it 8-). This has happened to me about three times during the last few weeks.
I don't think this is a feature. 8-) 8-)

PS:
Now that I think about it, it looks more like a workspace manager problem.
Well, if that's the case, then it's probably been fixed in 2.0-2.1.
