Are there plans to provide a command mutex and lock? 

I know there are versions in both the thread and interprocess library.  
I'm sure each library developed their own as the library was being 
created.  I've seen users ask about different mutexes and lock before 
and usually they are directed  to either of these libraries.  It would 
seem, from a user perspective, that a more central location for mutexes 
and lock would be helpful.  Possibly in it's own header library.  Is 
there a plan to do this in the future?
