boost::signal and thread-safety

Hi,

The signal FAQ says that currently boost::signals aren't thread-safe. 
I'm guessing this applies to connecting/disconnecting slots from 
different threads and calling a signal from multiple threadsl, right?

If synchronize access when connecting slots and make sure that only a 
single thread calls a certain signal, can I then use boost::signal to 
fire events from objects that do processing in a worker thread?

As a secondary question: how far in the future will this thread-
safety support be added? 

Thanks in advance,

Sven
