Just a note that this also applies to the following code fragment.

gst_gl_context_create ()
gst_gl_window_send_message () /* loop may not have started yet */

and by extension, pretty much anything that relies on the loop actually running
after context_create() is called.

IMHO this reduces the usefulness of the run/quit counter/flag option and leaves
us with unlocking the render_lock when the loop actually runs.

Also, all of this could be moot when we stop creating threads to marshall GL
calls into.
