Finally found the time to dig into the source.
Based on this snippet in core/java/android/os/Handler.java :
/**
* Handle system messages here.
*/
public void dispatchMessage(Message msg) {
if (msg.callback != null) {
handleCallback(msg);
} else {
if (mCallback != null) {
if (mCallback.handleMessage(msg)) {
return;
}
}
handleMessage(msg);
}
}
handleMessage() should return true if the message was handled. This
will prevent any additional handling of the message.
