Description

nest-asyncio allows nested event loops, which seems like a very useful feature. Currently it only works with event loops from asyncio. Would it make sense to have uvloop patchable with nest-asyncio?

Research direction

Start by reading nest-asyncio's stated patching approach and comparing it with uvloop's event-loop implementation. Determine the compatibility requirements and whether nested event loops can be supported without breaking existing asyncio behavior; done should include validated support and tests for the supported cases.
