>From the discussion I have the impression that there exist problems in
separating keyboard and mouse events. If I'm right here, then I'd
suggest to separate platforms with separate mouse and keyboard events
from platforms with common events for both devices. The platform
independent implementation then should assume and use separate queues,
as provided (separated if required) by the platform specific code.
