It may have been the problem where the message box stops finding things. It
started in LC 9 for me and happened again today. The message box couldn't
find a handler in the only card that was open, then couldn't even find the
card. Keyboard shortcuts stopped working and "edit script of this card" did
nothing. When that sort of thing starts happening you're about to crash,
and two minutes later I did. There's no recipe except that debugging seems
to set it off.
The point being, maybe the fault wasn't that any features have changed but
rather something else got very confused.

I can't reproduce that (just tested in v9.0.3), which is a good thing
because it would definitely be a bug.
The Message Box is just a stack with scripts, not a compiled engine
component as with HC's Message Box. If LC's Message Box can't call
routines in a password-protected stack, neither could anything else.
That would break a lot of projects, and make protected libraries
instantly useless.
What else might be going on with what you saw? Got a recipe I can try?
