I've been a steady advocate of "at least" semantics for methods that
specify a duration, including sleep.

Pavel, if you need to do something surely at 9am, set the alarm for 8am,
not 9am!

I agree that if Thread.sleep(0) is not really a no-op then
TimeUnit.sleep(0) should do the same thing.  Doug?
