Watchfiles has a much cleaner API.
It has a (Rust-based) extension module, but wheels are distributed for a wide variety of targets.
Also, it's a flail, but I hope it might help with the hanging CI tests (see #1132) on macOS (which seem to be related to watchdog.)
Issue(s) Resolved
It simplifies our code quite a bit.
It might fix the CI test hangage on macOS.
