I guess it would be nice to add another type so you can test/convert
callsites individually. I've got no objections to improving
synchronisation primitives, but I would be interested to see good
results from some mutex that can't be achieved by improving the
locking (by improving I don't mean inventing some crazy lockless
algorithm, but simply making it reasonably sane and scalable).
Good area to investigate though, I think.
