You will note that what I suggested was that applications that use the sync feature make it user controllable. I'm sorry, but if it has nothing to do with Python itself, perhaps we could stop this subthread (or move it to another ML)? There are enough messages already.

Yes, this is about Python: how should Python support David's use-case? This discussion started because Python currently doesn't have good mechansisms for fine-grained synching, and people are discussing how Python should support various use-cases. Please don't be too aggressive about labeling discussion off-topic.
