Replying to myself: I forgot to mention: it's easy enough to make threads created by Boost.Threads call on_thread_exit() after the thread function exits. Does anyone see any drawbacks to doing this?
Would this mechanism be able to deal extraneous on_thread_exit calls due to the user-provided handler calling on_thread_exit (since an implementation I have in mind would have no idea if a thread was Boost thread or not)? Now that you've formed this interface, I plan on submitting an implementation for this function (that I mentioned previously) that I'd expect to work on at least MSVC and future versions of Windows GCC, by the end of the July.
