Comment 2 for bug 1042404

Solving problem b) is not possible without reverting to a global attribute handler table (i.e. solution a), because AFAIK there is no way to catch when a new thread is created from Python in order to set the attribute handler there. I'm perfectly fine with solution a) though. I was wondering whether it would qualify as an API change or not (in other words, whether we should postpone it till 0.7).
