Hey Johan,
Thanks for the reply, I finally ended up using 
`atomic{Store,Load}` with some memory ordering after reading 
about them a bit. Atomic variables (`core.atomic!int`) would have 
been a great feature, I have no further usecases for them and 
they probably are a bit more complex for my understanding to make 
a informed request right now, but will definitely make one when 
my understanding improves in the future.

Thanks and regards,
Keivan Shah.
