Every so often, a thread shows up on the golang-nuts asking for some form of goroutine-local-storage, or some kind of goroutine id, or some kind of context. There are a few valid use cases for goroutine-local-storage, one of the most prominent being log line context. One poster was interested in being able to log an HTTP request context id in every log line in the same goroutine as the incoming HTTP request, without having to change every library and function call he was interested in logging. It is my duty to point you to https://blog.golang.org/context, which is how Google solves all of the problems you'd perhaps consider using this package for at scale.
