Antoine Pitrou added the comment: This will obviously break some existing code which passes a function returning true to Timer. I concur with Raymond: I don't think this is a good idea. Also, the Timer class itself is a rather simplistic answer to the problem of scheduling callbacks in the future (it uses a dedicated thread per callback, which is extremely wasteful). You'll find better solutions in more modern toolkits, such as asyncio; or you can easily write your own logic yourself.
