sure, but the modular design wouldn't benefit from one big dispatcer thread
that knows about tasks that can or cannot run in a mutual exclusive mode I'm

For some small tasks indeed we use this approach, but, at least in our case,
it would not be the proper solution. But thanks for responding anyway.
