> The current threading implementations have some minor annoyances:
> All do some amount of internal state tracking with an enum that ends up being overkill.
> All use weak_ptrs to help manage lifetimes, instead of the enable_shared_from_this base class that was designed for exactly this purpose.
> All of the specific thread factories implement "detached" methods, but the base thread factory doesn't have virtual methods exposing the detached methods.
> The thread manager has an unused local.
> Adding a "UniqueGuard" class to Mutex.h, to give more flexible RAII management to locks.  Currently no clients of this, but I have some patches that will eventually use this.
