The refactoring we are talking about won't effect them directly.  It
will change the internal implementation.  The only effect might be
to make it easier to provide new features in the future.

Cool. Historical note: I had to modify asyncore to allow it to have
minimal support for multiple loops.

To repeat what I said in an earlier thread, I want the refactoring
to allow Tisted's use without requiring it.
