That is what I was thinking. Then we don't need to do the TGID hack,
I suspect some people might object to that.

Right, but after unhash is there really still the notion of a valid TID?
I mean, the TID can be reused, at which point you'll end up with two
tasks etc..

But yes, very tedious.

I was thinking something like so?
