Ah, I think this is where my brain went all funny, because the NSRunLoop
documentation mentions multiple times that "A timer is not considered an
input source."
http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Cocoa/Reference/Foundation/Classes/NSRunLoop_Class/Reference/Reference.html

I suspect what is meant is that it's not considered an input source for the
purpose of deciding when to stop looping and return from the -run… methods.

Sorry for the distraction.
