During some recent debugging I did I found it useful to dump a thread's registers in this manner. Although in this case I was inlining the code in the part of SA where I wanted to see the registers, having it as a clhsdb command would not only be useful to user, but also useful when debugging SA because it would serve as a code snippet to copy-n-paste where needed.
Proposal for the syntax is the same as for the "thread" command:
threadcontext [-v] { -a | id }
Where -a displays all threads, and "id" is used to display a specific thread. -v just means more verbose output, whereas without it for the most part each register printed will just take up one line. I've implemented this and it was trivial, although I still need to come up with a test case.
