[Python-ideas] Python3 Multitasking

It may benefit many programmers if Python3 code could be multithreaded 
as easy as BASH code. For example, in BASH, if I wish to multithread a 
command, I put an ampersand at the end of the line. Then, the BASH 
interpreter will execute that line while continuing the execution of the 
script instead of waiting to finish that command. For Python3, I have 
two ideas for how the Python3 multitasking syntax should look.

Option 1: SOME_COMMAND &

Option 2: multitask(SOME_COMMAND)

Thank you,
