There might be a terminology problem here. RCU is read-copy-update, right? I fail to see the copy (copy data structure to be modified) and update (replace original pointer with pointer to copy) part. Do this play a role in that scheme? If so, what specific structure is copied for, say, a list or a dict? This confusion makes it very difficult for me to understand your proposal, so I can't comment much on it. If you think it could work, just go ahead and create an implementation.
