As you might know, I did plan to do so and I did start doing it some 
years ago. I found that doing it decently (creating a commonly usable 
event queue outside of the "active NoGUI" Widget Type I intended to 
create), and doing the new Widget Type in a way that complies to the 
makeup of the existing Widget Types (I tired to use GTK2 as a model) is 
hard for an LCL-internal newbie. But unfortunately I was assigned to 
other (non-Pascal) tasks and hat to abandon the active work on this.

I never did, but please bear with me, keeping this boiling, in case 
somebody m,ore knowledgeable than me sees the need, and might be 
interested in me helping.

Thanks for your faith !

I'll get back to you on this issue, once I might be able to get on this 
task.
Up till then, I am ready to help Graeme, whenever he might be inclined 
to enhance his fpGUI design by exporting the event queue code to some 
common place and/or plan a "noGUI", "ExtJS", "ifi" or whatever platform.
