WPF is far from a native GUI. All "controls" are drawn of the 
screen using DirectX and all well known input events are 
DirectInput calls. All objects in WPF world inherit from a 
DispatcherObject associated with a Dispatcher. The Dispatcher is 
responsible of queuing, filtering redundant calls or prioritising 
requests.
