--- Comment #4 from Pedro Alves <palves at redhat dot com> 2012-02-20 19:10:45 UTC ---
Related, if/when we show the selected thread in the prompt (e.g., "thread N>",
then with:

thread 1> c (or c& or whatever)
Thread 2 [foo bar] received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x000000000040047f in main () at crasher.c:5
5      *x = 52;
thread 1>

the question of whether to switch the thread on event is no longer one about
confusion/surprise, but about convenience (and that depends on use case).
