just a question that could clarify my thoughts, can a non joinable thread be interruptible?
No, because you no longer have a handle with which to interrupt it. I have thought about providing an "interrupt handle" which you can obtain either from a boost::thread object, or by calling boost::this_thread::get_interrupt_handle() or similar, in which case a detached thread would be interruptible.
