IMHO both kinds of "Shared Object GUI" might be useful for appropriate 
projects: (1) doing an extension to the main program's GUI and (2) doing 
a completely independent GUI. Of course (1) is only possible if the main 
program is done in Lazarus, as well, so the relevance of (2) is 
immediately obvious as well.

While (1) seems more obvious and does not need an additional thread, 
regarding that with Lazarus seemingly the shared object creates it's own 
completely independent static LCL memory and Application instance (2) 
might be easier to do.
