 Do you think that warning can't be ignored?

 No any modified data should prevent: access control port, open new window,
 close current window. Before "Sending NEWNYM" it actually assumed
 everything finished: tabs closed, conns destroyed, prefs synced, etc. With
 processing all events in queue you can guarantee that.
