IMO this would be best approach (you probably wanted to say
thread.waitWhilePaused()?). However to pause application at arbitrary
JVM instuctions you could use either JVM emulator (that's complex and
I am not aware of Java emulators written in java - so this is not
practical) or java debugger (that presumably would slow your entire
application). Forcibly blocking a thread at random points is
deadlock-prone so it is not safe - even if you do not use locks they
may occur in underlying Java code.

However it is worth asking if Jython has some kind of Python
interpreter at jyt...@li.... If it has - it would
be not so hard to install some hooks there and use interpreted Jython
code only (although Jython scripts will run slowly in this case).

I hope this helps.
