I agree that this might be a nice design rule, but unfortunately the FCL
does not provide a message queue and thus a "TApplication"
implementation, TTimer, Thread Synchronization and such things that
(other than possibly their implementations) are not depending on a GUI
but necessary for decent (headless, embedded) applications.
