If you get rid of the thread, programs that don't run a message loop or that block for a time after receiving certain messages won't animate smoothly.
Yeah, I was half joking about removing it. comctl32 6.0 doesn't run a thread anymore, do you know of many/any programs that depend on that?
What we had there worked, and it took quite a while to get rid of the races and lockups. Why can't we just revert to what we had?
I will, it's just that I can't test the code so it will take maybe couple of iterations. I'll analize what changed in the locking today.
