Re: Questions about throw-on-input

[Alexander Miller]

I think every one's been talking about sharing data so far, but what
about the other part of the equation 'shared + mutable state = Bad'? Do
you think it would be feasible to remove mutability by giving side
threads only read-only access to all that global shared data?

Threads like these would still be plenty useful, you could still handle
language server communication (or semantic parsing, or imenu scanning
etc.) in the background with much less danger of stutter and a much
smaller problem area w.r.t. concurrency.

Does that make sense?
