    Should we use the async methods in the 4.5 framework to accomplish this? They will work under Mono and they are the best pattern for UI decoupling going forward, in my opinion.

    I think we can assume anyone that ports our code and creates a UI that needs 'threading' or async decoupling will use whatever technique their framework / toolset encourage.

      Maybe and I suppose its much easier than conventional threading, although it's worth keeping in mind that people are not encouraged to install another .net version just for one application.
