Obviously you are right. But I don't see how WaitFor can at all be used
with a thread that does Synchronize in it's loop, if the implementation
does not provide for having synchronized methods executed while the Main
Thread is in a WaitFor. So such an implementation would render WaitFor
useless and it should be removed or documented "don't use".
