OK. This is a possible "do it by youself" solution, but imagine
your Edit menu has been teared off, so that is open and visible,
and that the user moves from a modifiable object to a "read-only"
one. How will you know that the "Cut" item/action should be
disabled? [1]
You need a "current object" concept and a "on idle" callback from
the framework. The whole concept of "event driven GUI" is to NOT
write your event loop yourself again.
[1] Another "do it by youself" solution is to set a timer.
