Well, seeing as that is the only way that works, I would say it is
"approved" :-)

The MFC threading stuff is almost identical to a Python thread created with
the thread or threading modules.  Indeed, to Python, they are identical.
The only difference I can see if that we have a real MFC thread backing this
thread.

At some stage I will try and sort this out so standard Python threads also
work correctly...
