it wouldn't be terribly hard to do that in the background. however, 
switching to a proper main loop would be more or less a pre-requisite, 
which might be a somewhat bigger project (as such, it seems fairly easy, 
but doing it properly would probably require quite some refactoring to 
avoid nested main loops (which are a reentrance nightmare)).
