[Qt-interest] opengl thread

[bert.ddecker]

Thanks a lot for your answer, it was very useful !
Too bad qt doesn't allow me to have a seperate rendering thread and gui 
thread, than I wouldn't have to make sure all my events were handled in a 
very short amount of time.
But I guess most of my events are handled in a very short amount of time 
anyway.
