I think it could, but I see a few issues with an approach like that:

1) In at least on one of our platforms, the process is killed as a part of the 
core dumping mechanism used.

2) If this is the only thread dump mechanism, we would loose the ability to 
make multiple, consecutive dumps, which could be useful for tracking movements 
of the threads. (The reason why we have iteration_0, .., iteration_5)

3) Something needs to materialize the Java frames of the thread dumps. Today 
that's something the SA can do for core dumps. Personally, I don't want to rely 
on that tool for future features.
