It seems to me that the citation already has good news: the limitation
will be removed
in a future release. The person to talk to is Erik Klintskog: he is
working on separating
the distribution protocols from the emulator (in the current release
they are intertwined).
This means that, e.g., protocols for stateful entities will work for
*all* stateful entities
and not just for objects, cells, and locks. Stateful entities include
threads, dictionaries,
arrays, and spaces.
I am sure Erik can say more about this (and about the timeline for its
release).
