More (dire) thoughts coming up: If you manage to run another program
without terminating the old one, the old one will still be resident in
your memory... :-/
Also, you will have to include a routine in all "interrupt-compatible"
programs that actually _lets_ you run something else on top of it _and_
makes sure you return in the proper place again. The routine has to pop
up every now and then just to check. That would require a lot of
checking, effectively slowing down all the involved programs _and_
making them bigger.

Maybe it's not that great an idea after all?! :-/
