Yes, and I think we all agreed that some sort of serialization is
needed. The question is how to do that without a complete rewrite of
the low-level input code.
Tom seems to have a different idea, but I don't think I understand it
well enough yet.

Why is that important? Wouldn't the prompt itself be informative
enough? And how (in what terms) would you suggest to indicate the
thread ID in this case?
