The problem here is reentrance.

If we assume our system has no threads (only internal to plugins), we 
can't receive asynchronous messages from the GUI (or any control 
system). Or at least we have to put some locks somewhere, to be thread 
safe inside the system. ie the GUI/Control interface has to be thread 
safe... Now does any plugin have to take care of this ? Or the "host" 
will take care of that. How are UI changes applied to the system ? (as 
soon as possible, read low-latency)
