I do need to set thread priorities however. This is more important to me than cancellation.
This leads me to ask, while the interest sparked by the "Future of Boost.Thread" thread is still hot: what are the most important things, in your opinion, that Boost.Thread lacks?
for me? 1) priority modification (both absolute and relative) 2) return value | exception propagation back to the "joiner"
