OK. I don't mean to be difficult, I just don't see what testing I can do
that would be of any use.
Eli, you said:

Posting a message and then sleeping while it's processed is odd,
isn't it? If the input thread /sent/ its message to the main thread,
then while waiting for SendMessage to return, the input thread would
automatically continue to process sent messages
