That piece of the code was inherited from the rsvp daemon.
`Tn' (n=integer) selects a thread context in the interactive command
mode.  In rsvp, a thread context selects one of rsvp sessions.  In
altq, a thread context selects one of interfaces so that you can omit
the interface name in a command line.

The feature isn't very useful for altq, and might go away in the
future.
