That is exactly what I request (and what I already partly implemented):
enhance the existing NoGUI Widget set (simply) by a event queue. Here it
would be a good ide to reuse the proven event  queue code provided by
the GTK(2) Widget type. (Only same should be moved out of the forms*
files into it's own ones to make it reusable without copying it.)

A greater challenge is to do (e.g.) the TTimer for this Widget set that
will one of the components that provide events for that queue. Here I do
have a working Linux example taken from MSEIDE (using a signal on the
low-level (Linux only)
