it wouldn't be terribly hard to do that in the background. however,
switching to a proper main loop would be more or less a pre-requisite,
which might be a somewhat bigger project (as such, it seems fairly easy,
but doing it properly would probably require quite some refactoring to
avoid nested main loops (which are a reentrance nightmare)).
