Not that I know of. Let us know what you find out.

This is how I achieved with IUPLua UIkit and LuaSocket copas:

first I created an iup.timer and set its interval to 20, at its tick, I called copas.step(0) which just equals with uv.run NOWAIT. Last start the WM's message loop.

though it's just a workaround (high-latency and costs a little more cpu time), it worked well at most situations.
