Meaning that embedded applications is not the goal of Lazarus.

This would be a very sad decision, regarding that Lazarus (other than 
Delphi) is able to create application for small embedded devices e .g. 
based on Linux and ARM.

I (partly) disagree, as currently several event queue implementations 
are provided in the LCL. Of course it would be best to move those parts 
of them that can be based on the same code, out of the LCL and into the 
FCP. but as discussed already several times I don't have any hope that 
this can be done (due to political reasons).

The second best ways to go would be to enhance the existing Widget Types 
(e.g. noGUI) or provide new ones.

Great.
