stackless, uthreads, and GUIs

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone has experimented with using stackless to
implement guis.  I haven't played with the package much myself (yet),
but it seems like you could write something nice using continuations
to implement dialog boxes, and so on.

I know most real GUIs use threads, but real OS threads are such a PITA
to get to compile (in my experience), that I'd like other options.

I'm mostly just playing with this idea for now.  Is it a reasonable
direction in which to be thinking?  Any accessible references?
