I guess it's my fault then for not paying enough attention to the
multithreading PEP. I did think it was "just" a multiprocess version
of threading, and if I'd have realised, I'd have lobbied for parity of
implementation at the time. Ah well, none of that is a criticism of
multiprocessing itself, and it's certainly not too late to add this,
as you said.
