If I have a suspend function that I want to call on a button click event what's the best way to do that?
Example
```Button(
   onClick = { runit() }
) {
  Text("Run")
}```
Where runit is the suspend function. I can put it in a runBlocking, but that locks up the whole UI and seems incorrect in this situation.

I suppose it depends why `runit()` is a suspending function, but yeah, if it's a potentially slow function, you should probably `launch` it into a new thread or coroutine scope.  <https://kotlinlang.org/docs/reference/coroutines/basics.html>

What scope would launch come off of?
```fun main = Window() { }```
Is there a scope build for the window already?

Depends on what you're trying to do.  Typically, for most actions, I'd imagine you'd want an application scope or to use `GlobalScope` since you typically don't want the action to suddenly die if the user switches tabs or the widget is otherwise removed from the hierarchy.

`runBlocking` just uses global scope right? So I could maybe do `runBlocking { Window() { ... } }` then I should be able to use launch and async inside the window block? Seems like it might be nice if window had a context even if it was just global.
