The tools you mentioned clearly don't use OpenOCD's RTOS support or GDB's thread info for that anyway, as neither provides any info about things you mentioned (semaphores, queues, allocators, ...). So that hypothetical change that I suggested neither prevents nor enables them to do that. And if these tools do that now, they do that by directly accessing target memory via GDB, so no special support for anything like that is required.
