Anyone else notice, that

waitUntil

agressively blocks the main thread causing background tasks on the same scope to never complete?

Copy code

// Works
        while (!downloadCalled) {
            Thread.sleep(100)
        }
        downloadCalled.shouldBeTrue()
        // Will block here for ever as it locks the thread so the thing we are waiting for will
        //  never run
        // waitUntil(timeoutMillis = 5000) { downloadCalled }

It will not even timeout, feels very broken? This is desktopTest, might be fine on other srcs..?

Seems to work on the emulators, so guessing something when it got ported to desktop src for KMP

It seems to just constantly blockingly run a frame on the main thread

Thread.sleep

after this call https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/blob/8c335c0b52a5cd1926695ea2c16ddeb627cde414/compose/ui/ui-test/src/skikoMain/kotlin/androidx/compose/ui/test/ComposeUiTest.skiko.kt#L321
