Partly.  Eli please correct me if this has changed.

Redisplay has two phases:

1. Building desired matrices, that is, what should be on the screen
after redisplay.

2. Updating current matrices from desired matrices, and bringing that on
the screen.

Only phase 2 has input blocked because the current matrices are
modified, which are shared state with the GUI code.

Expose uses only current matrices.
