If not multi-threading, could Emacs be made stronger in multi-tasking?
For instance, if the display-engine could be separated from the
lisp-engine parts, then perhaps a mini-scheduler could fork off
lisp-engines as needed (or requested) to process complicated things.
The "engines" would theoretically be lighter weight than Emacs proper,
but not as light-weight as multi-threading would allow.
