"""This module contains blocking clients for the controller interfaces.
Unlike the clients in `asyncclient.py`, the clients in this module are fully
blocking. This means that methods on the clients return the actual results
rather than a deferred to the result. Also, we manage the Twisted reactor
for you. This is done by running the reactor in a thread.
The main classes in this module are:
* MultiEngineClient
* TaskClient
* Task
* CompositeError
