- dispatch()
- dispatch(unblock)
Parameters:
unblock - Optional boolean flag to unblock context variables during dispatch
Return: True if message was handled, false if it was not handled
NOTES on message dispatch without unblocking the context:

- Leads to deadlock if script have a handler for the dispatched message
- Script unload will wait until context is unblocked
