This to me seems to be the low level support you would build
something like Twisted on top of.  Pushing Twisted so that others
can get it seems a little over the top.

In any case I'm not building an application.  I am transparently making
standard library calls yield to a scheduler while whatever they would do
happens asynchronously.  Generic support for this allows me to make
Stackless usage like normal Python usage but with microthreads.
I would hope if Dustin went ahead with a generator based microthread
solution he find it useful as well.  Lumbering Stackless at least with a
framework like Twisted pushes complexity up to the user, something
Stackless cannot afford.

Cheers,
Richard.
