Coroutine issue – Touch Lua Review

Love this app, I've bought almost all the libraries, created a complex framework, and even an online chatroom - but there is one issue that bothers me. When running a coroutine, it doesn't run as a separate thread, instead holds up the script until the coroutine is complete. This makes multitasking in my code impossible and keeps me from making really cool things. Can this PLEASE be fixed?
