07/04/2018, 10:28 AMThis is your thread: https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.coroutines/issues/119
We talked about this in ktor not too much ago, but it seems that has been lost in slack by just one day (17th june).
There was several proposal about how to use coroutines to restore the ThreadLocal stuff on each context change, but ideally you should try to use non-thread local whenever it is possible. You can use kotlin DSL (receivers) or the corotuine context to store stuff, and extension methods to make things nicer.
@katokay did this in the end:

You can also ask in #coroutines
