See http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/1042

It has code for a function that does the same basic thing that yours does, but
with a bit more polish, e.g. if the result is a Deferred, it won't wake the
calling thread until the Deferred has a result, and it handles exceptions.

It just needs someone to write some tests and docs, and then it can be merged.
The function in that issue has actually been used by a few people, so it seems
to do the job.
