Yes, that's it exactly. So things without work tasks can still get done.

But timers are the important thing. With timers you can always implement work tasks by yourself.

I still don't get it. Maybe you're talking about something like "call a

By using my patched asyncore you can do the same with:
>>> self.call_later(0, something)
