sorry, 'wrap around' was a tad above my pay grade ;)

I see the following options:

1. poll from the idle loop (g_idle_add() or py equivalent) 
2. poll in a glib timer event (g_timeout_add() or python equivalent)
3. use zmq_getsockopt/ZMQ_FD to retrieve the file descriptor associated with 
the socket and have the gtk main loop issue a callback on FD events
4. use the pyzmq gevent route 
5. somehow have separate event loops (not sure if this is possible)

3) I'd feel confortable with rolling myself
5) ? dunno.

4) uses the dreaded libevent under the gevent Python package, so I'd rather not 
use that
1+2: not my style ;)

is 3) reasonable? if not, what else?


thanks for the help.
