Description
Hi, I am developing a backend API which extract data from CAS and returns it to the caller. Since from the backend point of view every CAS action called is an I/O blocking statement, I would like very much to be able to await for them using asyncio.
For instance something like:
async def calculate_data(...):
await cas.dataStep.runCode(code="...")
result = await cas.table.fetch(.....)
return result
Is that something achievable?

Research direction
Start by locating the Python SWAT entry points that execute CAS actions and fetch table results, then review how blocking calls are exposed to callers. The issue does not name files or tests; done would require a decided design and documented asyncio-compatible execution for both examples.
