That sounds like a dangerous assumption to me. Are you relying on the Global Interpreter Lock? Is is guaranteed? Does that safety transfer to Jython? How can I tell if any particular object is thread-safe? I don't know the answers to these questions, and I have the feeling that it is probably best to play safe and always use your own explicit locking.
