By contrast it works only in lazarus GUI programs, and is useless e.g. for daemons.

Of course I do know that (as I issued the request for a "active" non-GUI "Widget Type" with support for a Pascal EventQueue for multiple platforms - like "mse" does provide ever since - already years ago, and even tried to implement it myself but failed due to the complexity of the Widget Type depending units in Lazarus).

But AFAIK same is true for TThread.Queue(), and TThread.Synchronize (requested by the OP).
Both TThread.Queue and TThread.Synchronize just need calls to CheckSynchronize to be processed. Which is normally done by the widgetset event loop, but can be done manually as well (I'm using this for example in a highly threaded console application; the main thread there just calls CheckSynchronize while the rest is done in threads).
