Threading, signals and asyncio

[fitzterra]

I want to use this package for running a daemon that uses asyncio, but due to the daemon being spawned in a thread, this is not possible. What was the reason for using a thread for the main daemon process? Since the underlying python-daemon does not use threads, I think it would be possible to make some slight changes around signal handling and then not use threads. Before I go down this route thought, and only later find out that I'm loosing some other functionality, I thought I'd ask first.
