Disagreed. Using KSE APIs _is_ difficult. I think one of the ideas
behind 1:1 libth is to keep the code as simple as practical and
entangling it too strongly with KSE contradicts with that goal. I
certainly hope to see M:N threading project to come to completion in the
future, but keep in mind that the architecture this complex will
certainly take quite some time to mature and having a reliable fallback
option is good. If anything it will provide KSE people with something to
compare their implementation with.
