Tid between classes

As far as I can see gtkD no longer supports openGL so I was 
thinking it might be possible to run a gtkD GUI on the main 
thread and openGL/Derelict on another. The Gl thread is derived; 
extends Thread. With threads having separate memory is this 
assumption correct?

If it is, I would like to use message passing via Tid(s) to allow 
the gui to tell the gl thread what to draw and where. I can pass 
the main threads Tid to gl upon construction, but I don't 
particularly want to set up a while loop on the main thread 
looking to receive the Tid sent back from the owned gl thread. 
But I need the gl Tid to send data through to the gl thread. Is 
there a another way to access the gl thread's Tid from within the 
main thread?
