That's the idea behind it, yes.

However, we're not there yet - cluster rendering support, while being on 
the roadmap, is not on the agenda for 3.7; there's still a lot of data 
simply shared among the threads rather than being passed around by 
messages, and that won't be addressed until after the 3.7 release proper.
