I assume c and d will get fixed (since doing animation from worker threads is pretty much the point).
(c) yes and no, the animation part no, because it's a timing issue and switching processes messes with graphics's engines view of things. (d) no UIWebView is non-concurrent object, in future OS perhaps touching it from a background thread leads to a fatal exception (on purpose).
b - well of course you can't do UI work from FFI - you're not on the UI thread - unless you call performSelectorOnMainThread:... from there.
no developers want to do that, also it's hard to determine what that is, using quicktime just to open a quicktime file not even display it? is that UI. Well it wasn't in the past, is now.
