Threads in LC

Both Python and LiveCode are single-threaded.

IIRC, Python offers parallelism as a programming style, but unless 
you're using one of the special builds I don't believe it offers true 
concurrency (though both can handle concurrent tasks through 
multiprocessing).

This may be helpful here: how would you approach this in Python?

I wonder if we can tailor an LC approach to more closely resemble it, or 
at very least arrive at a language feature proposal to give us 
parallelism within a single-thread like Python does.
