Hm. I want the threading and event world to be very clearly separate and
different, since accidentally combining them is disastrous. So the
concurrent package is the *last* place where I want asyncio to live. (And I
realize there is also some multiprocessing support in that package -- but
it still uses threads to wait for things.)
