I'm not sure threadlets are the right thing for the VNC server. The VNC
server wants one dedicated thread. Threadlets are a thread pool. You
could potentially use one thread per client but I doubt it would be
worth it.
At any rate, flushing the full queue is overkill. You want to wait for
your specific thread to terminate and you want to block execution until
that happens. IOW, you want to join the thread.
