Research direction
Start by reviewing the 48-comment discussion and the repository's Rust bindings to the Python interpreter, then compare the requested multiprocessing-like use case with Python's sub-interpreter and C API constraints. Done would require an agreed support plan and corresponding implementation and tests, but the issue names no files or acceptance criteria.
