That is, one thread can place events in a queue that are handled by another thread pool when it gets to them, like a lightweight SEDA implementation?

Not currently, though the grid tech could be used as a somewhat 
heavyweight version of that.  That said, I had the same thought when all 
of this was introduced to me, so expect something along those lines in 
Tango eventually.
