Most user space developers are unaware that such a tool even exists. If this script were part of drgn, only a few people would know about its existence. If shipped as a part of GDB, it would be exposed to the regular GDB users who would actually debug multi-threaded user space programs.

FWIW this latter approach makes sense to me.=C2=A0 One idea behind the Pyth= on
extension work is that project-specific things can be shipped with that
project, and don't need to be in gdb itself.

thanks,
