But the same danger exists on other systems, and we still show all the
threads in the current inferior.

Maybe it would make sense to show only those that are being debugged,
but do it from "info threads".  (Why would a user want to show other
threads, if she isn't debugging them?)  But if showing them all is
also important, maybe that alone should be a separate wtx-specific
command?
