Each event handler will typically take very little
time to execute, but scripts can maintain global data
between 2 event calls which might be made days or
weeks apart.

I need to restart the scripts transparently, as if
they were running in a thread or fiber. Currently each
running script has a stack, heap and registers which
are saved when another script is scheduled.
