Huh? That I find most curious.

I *always* derive from threading.Thread and really like the way that
thread setup works (instanciate Thread handle, call start). Very
intuitive, never had the problems with clarity that you mentioned. Could
you elaborate on your suggestion? I don't seem to quite get it I'm afraid.
