Do you intend that 2.x would add features to handle 
multi-processor systems?  (Please?)  I don't have anything 
definite to propose, though of course Java's "synchronized" 
comes to mind.

Well, I suppose that should first be "Do you have a proposed 
feature list?" of stuff that's been held back...
