What if the above use case uses vector<MyClass> where MyClass contains a lot of expensive resources (or other data that needs to be kept around for one reason or another) *plus* a std::thread?
Well...
void old_detach() { new_detach(); *this = std::thread(); }
<shrug> I don't see sufficient motivation for new_detach(). I'm still trying to model pthreads semantics. I feel underqualified to invent and standardize new semantics for threading. Having two flavors of join (that I just suggested) is pretty radical for old staid conservative me. I'm not sure how much more excitement I can take! :-) -Howard
