Description
In ipykernel 5.5.6,both and put msgs into and process the msg with . Although both and publish the ,there are no conflicts.
When it comes to ipykernel 6.5.0, put msgs into and process the msg with , while shell_stream still works in the old way. This means and will publish the in the same time.
I found this problem in jupyterlab when i executed a cell(sleep 600s) in an ipykernel with ,i switched to another ipynb and switched back. The cell was still running, but the kernel execution_state became idle. Then i found the ipykernel received multi and published the status to idle.
As https://jupyter-client.readthedocs.io/en/latest/messaging.html said "Debug requests and replies are sent over the control channel to prevent queuing behind execution requests". It confuses me that why control_requests affect the kernel's execution_state? Should we use another state like control_state?
