I've implemented a toy version of this, so I can say it does work and
is not too hard, although I don't still have the code. My OSP
project is a concurrency library that would make implementing this
pretty trivial though: it extends the Event module to work over UNIX
& TCP sockets and to have a common interface for thread creation /
forking / remote process creation.

It would also be nice to have a Apply in Parallel / Parallel List
Comprehension syntax for it a la NESL (http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~scandal/
nesl.html).
