Ardour runs N different MainContexts. It runs one for every user interface that can control the program (GUI, Generic MIDI, OSC, Mackie Control, ....). There are handlers for things taking place in every context, but GdkEvents only happen in the MainContext started and run by GTK+. The others have their own sources and do not generate GdkEvents (just file-descriptor-ready conditions).

Is there a reason to have more than one MainContext or more than one MainLoop? Or is it more appropriate to add event handlers to one application main loop (I mean GtkApplication)?
