Sockets, threads, and killing servers

This looks nice. I don't know of a better way to achieve this, (and 
neither did anyone else who responded to your previous posts) and it's 
an important piece of functionality. Any chance of getting this 
incorporated into the SocketServer module (ie, a subclass which is 
"stoppable" for use by those who need it)? I don't need this myself 
(yet), but I'd hate to have to reinvent this solution if it DID come up, 
and it seems like a likely feature to want.
