No, but it's on the TODO list.  The central issue is getting a synchronously
multiplexing main-loop and associated file-descriptor scanning code
(twisted.internet) running inside Jython.  This will probably be possible with
JDK 1.4's multiplexing stuff, but I think the initial approach should be to
"fake it" by spinning up lots of blocking threads and having them communicate
back to, say, the Swing main loop.

Any takers?
