I would revise this a bit… spinning the runloop in Default mode is
generally not advisable. Spinning in event tracking mode is far more
common. Spinning in a custom mode is definitely only for those who
really know what they're doing… if you start calling out to other code,
that code might be very confused when its timers don't fire.
