The greatest obstacle to this seems to be shallow binding - you'd have
to unwind one thread's stack and rewind another's when switching
threads.  Maybe there's an easier way that I don't see...


I don't see why this subject keeps coming up.

We don't need threads in elisp. Just more asynchronous network
implementations.

Anyway, async code is so much more fun to write than threaded
code. Threads are for beginners.

Async network code won't take advantage of multiple CPU:s.  Threads do.
