William as already answered your questions about 2) in great details,

be a bad choice, and 1) to be the correct solution.

I have always regarded option 2) as a lazy/lousy programmer's attempt to simulate option 1). The reason I focused my question on option 2) is that I wish to understand the execution flow from the point amid the lengthy process, where /ProcessMessages/ is called, to the queue processing, and then back to the calling site, where the lengthy process is resumed. William's response has already taken me much closer in that direction, but I think I might still need another round.

Thank you and best regards,
