You can always have your own MyHDL generator instance that does 
programmatic control. In each call, it just checks some IO and does 
something suitable. Remember, you have the full power of Python 
available to the running code.

So, you just run the simulator forever, handling state changes from 
whatever external source you want inside the running code, and then when 
you want to stop, raise StopSimulation. It could even be a real physical 
source if you wanted :)

If anything, programmatic control is much easier, since that's what 
programming languages are for!
