Found the link to your video + blog on Twitter. On the weekend, I
watched it with big eyes and tried your code on my side as well:
great work!

I'm loving it.

I'd love to see this async method for shell script as well. Many
shell snippets I am using do take some time: backup, audio
conversion, bulk image conversion, ...

1) How big is the chance that we're going to see async babel block
execution by default in a future org-mode release?

2) In the meantime: Wouldn't it be nice to have additional
source-block definitions like python + apython (for asynchronous
python) or sh + ash?
