描述

Hello and thank you for this amazing package. I've being using it for years at this point, and it allowed for really cool things.

I have this long-running project that uses this package, and I recently updated it from version 0.8 to 1.6, doing every adjustment needed to the code. I must say I really like how the new version works, much better and cleaner than v0. I have a question that I can't find the answer to from the code and the documentation though.

Suppose I have a pool of workers, with each worker using its own instance of one or more services, like the API client for a specific library (specifically, the Firebase and APN clients to send push notifications to mobile devices). I want to initialize the service when I spawn every worker in the pool for the first time, but I want the services to be already initialized with the same instance from before when a worker is reused. Of course, whenever a worker dies and a new one spawns, the new one will have to reinitialize them and get new instances. No problem about it.

So we're talking about something close to this.
```node
const Worker = require("threads/worker");
const someOtherLibrary = require('some-other-library');
const someConfiguration = require('./config/some-configuration');

const service1 = someOtherLibrary.initializeService1(someConfiguration);
const service2 = someOtherLibrary.initializeService2(someConfiguration);

Worker.expose(async function() {
service1.doSomething(someConfiguration);
service2.doSomethingElse(someConfiguration);
...
});
```
Would this work? Is it right in your vision for this package? If not, how can I correct it?

Thank you.

EDIT: I already made a few attempts and this seems to work, but I wanted to know your own thoughts about it.
