Yes. You'll also have to end your sheet in the method running in the
thread, and if you're using mutable objects, then you must also
implement locking so two threads don't try and operate on the same
object at once. Don't forget to use -performSelectorInMainThread: when
you need to end the sheet, since a good deal of the AppKit is not
thread-safe.
