Some board situations would provide valid (large enough and not too loss-making) ko threats for either player, in relation to some imminent or active ko fight.

In most cases these situations should be played out by one of the players before the ko fight starts, so that with best plays these 'double threats' don't normally play any part in ko fights. See remove double threats before you first capture the ko.
