Maybe we already can tell flash to process the UI event queue...

 

What happens when you use CallLater() to call yourself back?

Why aren't we allowed to tell flash to process the UI event queue
periodically in long executing subroutines?

Hell, just something to tell the client not to go into "Not
Responding" would be more than enough. I call "validate now"
periodically, but that doesn't help because I still get the "Not
Responding" which makes it look like the software has crashed - a very
awkward user experience.

It seems like such a trivial thing for Adobe to add. Why don't they?
