      1. What would you like to communicate to the user about this feature?
      2. Would you like the user to see examples of the syntax and/or executable code and its output?
      3. Which versions of the driver/connector does this apply to?

      Async client should use tasks for SDAM (and other background tasks) instead of threads. Python's standard library doesn't really support using threads and asyncio together so we shouldn't try to fight an uphill battle. For example, asyncio streams can't be shared across io loops and we learned in PYTHON-4648 that regular sockets can't always be shared across io loops either.
