I don't think that's a good use case​, since frequently there would be more
than one UIProcess instance and you still would have to check if the one
you're looking at is the currently active one. E.g. every time a debugger
pops up for the current UI process (e.g. after a user interrupt) the
current UI process is suspended, and a new one is spawned to run the
debugger.
