This question comes up on the different Python lists every once in a while. 
In general, if you want something to be implemented in a specific way, feel 
free to provide the implementation.

There were several attempts to remove the GIL from the interpreter, you can 
look them up in the archives of this mailing list. They all failed to 
provide competitive performance, especially for the single-threaded case, 
and were therefore deemed inappropriate "solutions" to the "problem".

Note that I put "problem" into quotes, simply because it is controversial 
if the GIL actually *is* a problem. This question has also been discussed 
and rediscussed in great length on the different Python lists.
