Event blocking

Hi,

I remember reading quite a while ago that event blocking (request/reply) was
on the list of todos.

Is it possible to wait for an event to be fired, i.e. having a function
request an event and return when it has been emitted.

All examples only show "GUI" actions on events.

Cheers,
Malte.

If one reads the docs (Goals) one finds the answer
"Yet to be added is a blocking function, like x, y = mouse_press(*args) "

Cheers,
Malte.

John,

When do you expect this to be implemented?

I'd like to roll out a package depending on matplotlib and have a request for
this specific feature.

Cheers,
Malte.
