Hum, I am not sure what is the added value to simply spawning a thread and running the blocking function in the thread. The reason I say this is that ginput is a hack, and a fragile one. The reason behind ginput is that we want to block the call threading while not blocking the GUI event loop. Can you please detail your usecase, I am afraid I am missing something here.
