Concurrency
Like Go, any function can be executed concurrently.
go foo()
However, Go tends to rely on channels for syncronization. I'd like to allow return values
a := go foo(1) b := go foo(2) c := go foo(3) return a+b+c
This will wait for all three to return before running "a+b+c".
Wait
A thread can wait for some condition. The condition must be an immutable action.
wait(x == 20)
Priority
When starting a thread, it can have a priority. The catch is that most of the time we don't want this. So I think it's something that can be set on the runtime during compilation.
