I'd say the common threading programming model is very hard to get
right. There are other models that are easy to get right.  They've
been around for 20+ years. The problem is, they didn't make it into
any popular languages, so you're stuck with the model that you talk
about. Or maybe you're aware of those, and are saying all of those
models aren't "right" in some way?

People say good things about using the Queue module for Python. I
haven't investigated it thoroughly, so I have no idea how general it
is.
