OK.

So your point is that I can do the development and hold-off just the 
release.

If so:

  - The development of the functionality (using the svn release of fpc) 
id done and seems to work just fine
  - For "release" I would need to work with the Lazarus team. Here the 
discussion is whether or not this makes sense if it will not compile 
with the (currently) released fpc rtl.

Finally: maybe for perfect compatibility with existing Lazarus 
WidgetTypes maybe even the current svn version (TThread.Queue 
implementation) might be not usable (as it is said to do a direct call 
instead of a schedule when called from the Main thread <for Delphi 
compatibility>). Here I maybe would need yet another (non 
TThread-private) function to push an Event in the Queue (say class 
procedure TThread.QueueDirect). I'll take a look at this ASAP.
