This would change the current behaviour of these commands.  If a new command
is undesirable then perhaps optional parameters could be used:

     -exec-continue [ -p THREAD-ID/PROCESS-ID ]
     -exec-interrupt [ -p THREAD-ID/PROCESS-ID ]

It appears that -break-insert already has such an option for threads.
