Research direction

Start by checking how Rcpp::checkUserInterrupt is used and how RcppParallel executes work in threads. Determine whether interrupt detection can be supported safely inside a thread, and document a concrete implementation path or limitation.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

I don't know if it would be technically possible, but it would be nice to be able to use something like Rcpp::checkUserInterrupt inside a thread.
