That of course is not nice :(

OTOH, I feel that fpGUI is better suitable for a move in this direction 
than any other Widget Type's code.

I did take a deep look at the event queue code of MSEGUI. Same is 
perfect, but using it as it is would re-implement a lot of classes that 
already are existing in the LCL (it uses a cascade of "List" classes 
that finally the event FIFO is derived from). At that time I managed to 
do a working event queue with Martin's code, that I could compile with 
Lazarus as an enhancement to the noGUI Widget Type . But I stopped this 
design path, as I did not intend to suggest such a duplication of 
functionality.
