I see this same situation playing out with async executors. tokio is taking over, but it doesn't play well with other async executors. I just wrote a program that mixed tokio & glib and it wasn't fun.

This does feel like a soluble problem, so I hope they do figure it out. I think the first step might be something like without.boats' proposal to add something like https://github.com/zesterer/pollster to the standard library to establish a minimum common denominator.
