I'm confused. In what way is "adding/removing a reader/writer" not "registering/unregistering an object"?
In fact, I chose that API specifically because I didn't think it was like select().
Well, in poll() you don't register writing and reading separately - you have to register for them together (bu actually the limitation is in the Python API, not the C API). Further research shows that the current API might match other systems, so I was probably wrong about that.
