75% as per above.He, Like I do, doesn't mind fairly tedious workarounds.workaroundable by using broadcast blocksBlank, just because it's workaroundable does not necessarily justify or warrant a no support.
no support
Anyways, Semi-support since there is a workaround.

What do you mean? It's a simple workaround for your idea.

Asynchronous Custom Blocks
I mean, that if you call a broadcast in the middle of a script then you can run it like a custom block on a seperate thread. If you want parameters:
...
set [continue? v] to [false]
set [variable v] to (whatever :: grey)
broadcast [continue v]
wait until <(continue?) = [true]>
...
when I receive [continue v]
block (variable)
define block (parameter)
set [continue? v] to [true]
forever
...
end

But that's only if you need parameters, and if the parameter changes right away. For no parameter, you can use broadcasts.

I support this - I don't want, for example, the custom block that renders the display with pen to interfere with other scripts in the project.

75% as per above.Truth, PLUS the workaround is nearly IMPOSSIBLE to incorporate into a 1s1s project.workaroundable by using broadcast blocksBlank, just because it's workaroundable does not necessarily justify or warrant a no support.
no support
Support.

Support. I really need this, broadcasts are too slow to rely on in my case.
