If MP is protecting memory, how is it that Texel or any app doing something
it shouldn't, causes Thing to be killed ?

Surely, the app that violated MP should be halted ? Better still it
should be paused and the user asked if it is ok to allow the access.

Or is Texel accessing some shared area and making a mess of it ?
