Hi,
Sorry for resurrecting an old thread, but it just bothers me that this
is the best way that python has to deal with killing running
functions... it's quite an ugly hack, no?

Is it a feature that's needed bit missing from python, or is it left out
on purpose (same way like java has deprecated thread.stop and
thread.suspend because they were not safe)?

Left out on purpose because it is not safe.
