This is purposefully rough, 'cause I hope for discussion.

This is a new command to help manage large thread lists.
I started with the idea "I want to find out which thread
has target id 12345", then extended it to also handle the
new concept of thread names (which thread has name 'foo'),
and extra info as well (which thread has extra info that
includes the string "xyz").

The syntax (I'm open to renaming etc.):

thread tid [NAME | TARGET_ID | EXTRA_INFO]
Shouldn't this be under "info" or "show"?
Suits me, but
1) I'd prefer it wasn't "show", because there is no "set".
2) Info what?  tid?  thread-id?

thread show [NAME | TARGET_ID | EXTRA_INFO] thread info [NAME | TARGET_ID | EXTRA_INFO]

How about "thread find"?
