I don¹t have an opinion about how it should be implemented or whether or
not it should be configurable, I just think it¹s important for Tcl code to
be able to say ³I have lost faith in the viability of this child process
or thread and I want it to terminate.²

It doesn¹t have to be ³exit², either; it could be ³terminate_child² or
whatever.
