I think making redisplay a separate thread would be one of the more
useful improvements in Emacs.  The situation where the user clicks
File->Open from the menu bar and then (under a toolkit), while the
file-selection box is active, the Emacs display never changes, looks
like a bug.  (Try moving the file-selection box to a different
position and observe the blank portions of the Emacs window.)
