Gregory P. Smith added the comment: It doesn't seem very abusable... Though of a server accepts enough remote connections and uses input() and swaps out stdin after remote uses up fds with connections... That's a lot of circumstances at once. Rare application.
We ran into it with an interactive program controlling a bunch of things so it had lots of fds open when a tty stdin was swapped in for input.
