I guess that’s what I mean, yeah. For people that just don’t need these extensions, you could run without the GIL and then if it was required you could start using it while interacting with unsupported extensions.

I get what you’re saying, but for a lot of us, just being able to do nice multithreading for io would be a great enhancement. We have a use case when we’d like a bunch of threads to search through a large numpy structure and at the moment we have to stop to multiprocessing, which works. But is really heavy.
