Agreed, they are not necessarily dedicated to apps.  But while they are running the app, they have the appname in their thread local storage, no?    So if a thread has the appname in its thread local storage, is it not servicing that app, at that moment?  And if it is, why is that insufficient?  That is my question, and you've sidestepped it.

Sorry, I didn't mean to side-step: it's just that when reading your earlier post (on the Web using Gmane), all the lines of Python in your post ran together, so I didn't quite see what you were getting at.

Having looked at it more carefully, you're right: the threads set is not needed. You can just "return tlocal.appName == self.app.name". I missed that, so thanks for teaching me something, too :-)
