What I'm doing here is a kind of RTL-extension (to be implemented as a
"packet" that can be loaded in Lazarus and then allows for selecting a
new type of "application" (i.e. "NoGUIApplication" that works without
any binding to any Graphic system like the Windows User Interface API or
GTK/QT...), but allows for Event driven programming for things like
Timers, TCP/IP, serial interfaces etc. (Martin's MSEGUI happily does
provide this and he allowed me to use his code for that.)

I don't know how atypical it is to do an RTL extension :), but of course
it should integrate with the current (and future) RTL code as smoothly
as possible.
