The assumption is that only one thread should be trying to read from
the "terminal input stream" at any given time.  The initial process
"owns" terminal input originally; the process which owns terminal
input can yield ownership to some requesting process.

There's a (hopefully sensible) explanation of this in the documentation;
see "ccl:doc;HTML;background-terminal-input.html".
