Yes, of course.

Then I think the issue may be more about the graphics driver 
architecture, where we poll and process X11 events in 
MsgWaitForMultipleObjects.

I remember quite some time ago that for some reason I removed the wait 
for ll-hooks and julliard told me that it was needed for proper ll-hook 
processing.

I'm still not much more knowledgeable about how ll-hooks work right now, 
but it may still be required, and the correct fix would be to have mouse 
and keyboard input coming from a separate source, as we do for other 
devices.

It's a pretty big change and has a lot of implications though.
