Java-level deadlock after deleting project

Description of problem:
I managed to create deadlock in Workbench by deleting a project. After that it is not possible to log into Workbench and server never shuts down because of the deadlocked threads.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
6.1.0.ER5

How reproducible:
race condition?

Steps to Reproduce:
Not yet.

Actual results:
1 deadlock reported by jstack, impossible to log into workbench, server does not shutdown.

Expected results:
Deadlock should be prevented.

Additional info:
In attached jstack report, look for deadlock section at the end, after full thread dump. It begins with:
