Crashes / hangs occur in conjunction with the Blob Edit window.

Steps to reproduce (at least for me 😉 ):

```sql
-- 1. Create a test table
CREATE TABLE test
(
   raw_data BLOB,
   report BLOB
);

-- Insert at least one row (no need to commit)
INSERT INTO test
     VALUES (NULL, NULL);

-- Select from test table
SELECT * FROM test;

-- Now double-click the RAW_DATA column, then double-click the REPORT column. (sometimes toad hangs / crashes here)

-- Cleanup (sometimes toad hangs / crashes here)
DROP TABLE test;

```

sometime the following error appears:

Hi Dirk,

I'm not able to reproduce this. When it happens for you, have you already used the blob dialog from another query, or can you make it happen from only steps above?

Oh, actually, I can reproduce this (or something similar) after all.

modified steps:

1. create the table, insert the row, and commit.
2. run "select \* from test"
3. double-click in the cells, it works fine. Close the dialog.
4. modify the sql and run again as: "select t.\*, r.rowid from test t"
5. bug: Toad hangs!
