Is there an issue with multi-threaded access here or am
I imagining things?
There is an issue, and it's highly unlikely to ever be changed. The spec
defines the APIs as not thread-safe, so there is zero impetus to make them so
and thereby impact performance.
Okay. So the workaround appears to be to call getParameterMap() [for
starters] prior to any potential access by another thread.
Clearly there should be *some* way to add a means to peak on requests in
progress in detail (including their parameters) -- irrespective of what
the spec says.
From a quality of implementation standpoint this shouldn't have to copy
all the request data -- but forcing it to be obtained once prior to
access by other threads is quite reasonable.
