I don't know. This is the case in point. You're now suggesting doing things completely backwards - a thread of an application talking to external agent to tweak system management interface so that it can change the attribute of that thread. Let's please build a programmable interface first. I'm sure there are use cases which aren't gonna be covered 100% but at the same time I'm sure just simple inheritable per-thread attribute would cover majority of use cases. This really isn't that different from CPU affinity after all. *If* it turns out that a lot of people yearn for fully hierarchical enforcement, we sure can do that in the future but at this point it really looks like an overkill in the wrong direction.
