Lars Gustäbel added the comment: I agree with David that there is no need for tarfile to be thread-safe. There is nothing to be gained from distributing one TarFile object among multiple threads because it operates on a single resource which has to be accessed sequentially anyway. So, it seems best to me if we leave it like it is and let the user add locks around it as she/he sees fit.
