No, that's not allowed. There is a function that iterates the main loop 
once (gtk_main_iterate??) but the use of that is generally a sign of bad 
program design. However, it might get you out of a pickle if there's no 
obvious alternative.

Yes, they do some arcane magic in conjunction with the main loop.
