Several objects in Windows are considered "waitable", including:

  • Processes
  • Threads
  • Timers
  • Events
  • Certain synchronization primitives

It would be nice if polling were able to wait for them to become "ready". We could use associated wait packets on Windows 10 and thread-pooling on other platforms.
