I am very much against a nested event loop (QEventLoop::exec), it's a well-known fact nowadays that it creates unexpected re-entrancy and crashes.
And since I just fixed the crash (missing wait() after terminate(), see commit log), I don't think we need this change. However reusing threads might be a good idea (separate issue).</pre>

<pre style="margin: 0; padding: 0; white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">This patch replaces the creation of a new thread for every DNS lookup with a local even loop based solution. This change addresses the issue of crashes that can arise from terminating the thread when the desired timeout duration is exceeded. See http://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/102179/.</pre>
