It's been a long time since I was involved in real-time work, but back in that time frame, I used to collect documents on all sorts of computer-related topics. My set of papers on "Real-Time Programming and Scheduling" runs to a dozen volumes. The point is, nobody should think that this area can be suitably addressed with just a few language tweaks. It's really a thesis-level topic (and was, many times in those days, and I would expect so since then as well). Before you start thinking about language-level support, educate yourself about the larger context. Start with "Rate Monotonic Analysis" and follow leads from there.
My worry would be coming up with a language feature, implementing it, and then discovering it is useless.
