There are still some other parts of Rhythmbox that use threads for no real
reason: the audio CD track scanning, playlist manager saving, and the podcast
feed parser. All of these should use asynchronous stuff instead.

Use of threads itself isn't an issue, but using them when there are decent
alternatives (e.g. asynchronous IO) isn't usually worth the complexity of
locking etc.
