Shell is disposed when there is exception in syncExec. [message #1740349]

We have the following code,

getDisplay().syncExec(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
try {
String s=null;
s.endsWith("");
} catch (Throwable e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
});

As you see, the exception has been caught in the syncExec thread. But the shell is disposed.

Is it a bug or an intended behavior? Thanks.
