Feature or enhancement

Proposal:

Instances ofqueue.SimpleQueue have mutable state that is not safe to mutate without the GIL. The previous implementation (in 3.12) wascolesbury/nogil-3.12@7e60a01aee.

@colesbury - You mentioned in chat that porting the 3.12 approach wouldn't be straightforward. Can you say more?

Has this already been discussed elsewhere?

This is a minor feature, which does not need previous discussion elsewhere
