It would depend on the details, but my instinct says no (instead, the 
futures pools would be refactored to be task specific tailorings of the 
general purpose pools).

However, this is all very hypothetical at this point and not really 
relevant to the PEP review. We may never even bother creating these more 
general purpose threading pools - it was just an example of the kind of 
thing that may go alongside the futures module.

Cheers,
Nick.
