Agree with the postponement... thread() can fly under the radar a bit, and Thread we should probably stay away from.

A big part of the issue is that it's not safe to use drawing commands from another thread, which can confuse folks.

FYI, note that thread() is covered in the data tutorial:

https://github.com/processing/processing-web/blob/master/content/static/tutorials/data/index.html

I can remove but I think it's fine to have it in there as some info for those who might want to use it.
