Python's standard library doesn't contain in interface to I/O Completion
Ports. I think a common event loop system is a good reason to add IOCP
if somebody is up for the challenge.
Would you prefer an IOCP wrapper in the stdlib or your own version?
Twisted has its own Cython based wrapper, some other libraries use a
libevent-based solution.
What's an IOCP?
I/O Completion Ports, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IOCP

It's a Windows (and apparently also Solaris) API for async IO that can
handle multiple threads.
