In any case you need to support multiple threads acting on the UI, so
that shouldn't be much of an issue. Note that the event thread should
be posting messages, not writing to an fd. It probably means that the
design of many bits of the user code need to be different from x11drv,
which is why I think it's important to get this right before writing
tons of code.
