Reasonably safe... sure.  But unless I put sleeps in everywhere, I still get
deadlock.  It looks like QT doesn't like me throwing signals faster than it can
handle them.  

Where's the QThread class?  I'm getting more and more convinced there is no
good way to do threading with PyQT(or wxPython for that matter).

This is probably what I will end up doing.  But its a pain since it will have
a negative net effect on the UI's usability.
