What do you mean by this ?

  - LCL with gtk and/or qt already does provide support for event loops 
for more than one thread. (I am pretty sure that this is not the case 
?)   or
  - Theoretically it is possible to provide event loops for multiple 
threads by an LCL-alike system using gtk and/or qt.

Here I do agree.

Regarding an event loop in an external library, I am pretty sure that 
LCL does not use same, but manually creates it in pascal code. AFAIK, 
the gtk or QT widget set library itself does not provide an event loop. 
Maybe there is an often used library provided for C(++) programs that 
provides event loops got use with gtk and/or qt. Maybe this in fact is a 
C++ library and thus not usable with FPC.
