Potentially, but one of the big challenges you'll face is to establish
how it differs from using asyncio in the current process to manage
tasks dispatched to other processes via run_in_executor, and when
specifically it would be useful thing for a developer to have in the
builtin toolkit (vs being something they can install from PyPI).

Don't get me wrong, I think it's really cool that you were able to
implement this - there's just a big gap between "implementing this was
useful to me" and "this is sufficiently useful in a wide enough range
of cases not otherwise addressed by the standard library that it
should be added as a new standard application building block".

Cheers,
Nick.
