Sorry, I didn't mean to side-step: it's just that when reading your earlier post
(on the Web using Gmane), all the lines of Python in your post ran together, so
I didn't quite see what you were getting at.

Having looked at it more carefully, you're right: the threads set is not needed.
You can just "return tlocal.appName == self.app.name". I missed that, so thanks
for teaching me something, too :-)
