This is your opinion not mine, I'm not sure. Again, read the paragraph about 
secondary threads:
http://docs.wxwidgets.org/3.1/overview_thread.html

"[..] under Win32 a thread can only access GDI objects such as pens, brushes, 
device contexts created by itself and not by the other threads [..]"

One of the reasons why they strongly recommend "no secondary threads call GUI 
functions".

However, if you can ensure that the coroutines never call GUI functions, 
threads should be a nice alternative. I remember Orson has written, that this 
should be possible. Maybe he can answer the question if this restriction is 
still acceptable. Then I could rescue my implementation from my backups.

Thanks,
Torsten
