I would think "safe" would mean we can call it whenever we want, but it actually means we can only call it if the object doesn't need to be pickled. Should we just call this init_unpicklable_state? It's kinda verbose, but it's much more clear what it's doing.

I would think "safe" would mean we can call it whenever we want, but it actually means we can only call it if the object doesn't need to be pickled. Should we just call this init_unpicklable_state? It's kinda verbose, but it's much more clear what it's doing. It is a crappy name. In a later patch it gets renamed to "start" (and cleanup to "stop"), which I think is actually a clearer indication of its use.
