The problem here is not Twisted and GUIs, the problem is wxPython.  While superficially appealing and very featureful, wxPython integrates *very* poorly with a foreign event loop and has no facility for integrating network I/O.

Using GTK+ with Twisted, for example, is completely trivial, and requires no such threading hacks.
