Are there any .net classes/functions that are optimized for multiple cores?

I know that the developer is supposed to do this himself. But seeing how we are getting cpu's with more and more cores and there are still many developers who do not use multithreading, if we have this functionality built in, it could increase performance dramatically in some scenarios.

One particular example where this could be quite useful is in image processing. I doubt that the built in GDI+ classes are multithreaded.
