Feature #5669: Random thread scheduling based on a seed

Just a little idea that popped into my head:

Would it be possible to have "random" thread scheduling (based on a seed)? E.g. it spends a little more time in different threads than usual?

This would be very useful for discovering subtle threading bugs that's often platform dependent.
