We need some kind of concrete plan for what is a usable amount of functionality and what has to be done to get it.
This is exactly the type of discussion I'm after.
I'll start.
A usable amount of functionality would be the ability to start threads from:
a background worker
These cases should be bound by *at least* the following rules:
no signal handling from threads
no calls into PostgreSQL functions from threads
The patch I supplied is one of the requirements to get there - I would love help to discover the others.
