Do you suggest to let to a SD client to spawn another worker thread if it
expects that the request will be time-expensive and it needs to do other
stuff meanwhile?

What is your opinion about the current SD implementation? I think we could
call it asynchronous because all the data it ever transmittes to a client is
via ItemAdded event. Though I must admit that the event is not really a
result, because there is no direct request from a client for it, so I'm not
sure if your critique applies to the current implementation as well.
