Right now this library expects the user to call app.wait_for_message() which causes the app to loop indefinitely, locking the thread until the app exits.

However, I want to run some custom logic in my app loop and then update the tray icon based on that logic (change the icon & update some menu items). Is it possible to just call the update function from my own loop, rather than have this library run the loop for me?

I'm trying to do the same, maybe you can use the code from this PR as it seems to do the job.
