I guess what I am trying to say is that I'd prefer a single underlying event generation/dispatching mechanism. You could have both (instaneous and asynch behaviors) with just one underlying mechanism. If we are to use threads then the instant event would be emulated by waiting on the completion. If we are to use single-thread message pumps (like Win32), the asynch event would be emulated by a post function. If we select the first option, the gui library must be thread safe.
