It's starting to look like that is the solution that is the most
maintainable and the least work. And it still allows users to parameterize
the functions they plot. If something breaks, it's not my fault, because
spawning a thread that waits on a channel for a "draw now!" command, and
then draws on a dc, should just work, right?

In either case, it will be equally likely to be your fault.

The issue will be if the drawing call back expects parameters to be
set in the context in which the actually calback has.

Which they might. Maybe.

Gah. You're right.

That's it. I'm going to invent, like, parameter units or something.
