The Lazarus team did a great job but needs to draw a line at certain 
locations.

(As you might know I do have a working draft of an "Active NoGui" Widget 
Type implementation, and I suppose with fpc 3.0 - that seemingly finally 
provides TThread.Queue in a released version - it might be viable to 
push it. I'll re-check as soon as I find some time to do this.)
