Starting/stopping timers from another thread may result in errors that
may not appear until hours, days or weeks after if a release build of
Qt is used with the GLib/UNIX event dispatchers. Such errors may
manifest as warnings such as "QObject::killTimer(): Error: timer id 7
is not valid for object 0x2a51b488 (), timer has not been killed" and
application crashes (e.g. crashes in malloc, realloc and
malloc_consolidate).
