+Subject: [PATCH] Remove deadlock risk in firing async events
+
+The PluginManager incorrectly used synchronization on firing any event
+that was marked as synchronous.
+
+This synchronized did not even protect any concurrency risk as
+handlers were already thread safe in terms of mutations during event
+dispatch.
+
+The way it was used, has commonly led to deadlocks on the server,
+which results in a hard crash.
+
+This change removes the synchronize and adds some protection around enable/disable
+
