This is great news! I've been using Pixz for both multi-threaded XZ compression and decompression. Although, multi-threaded decompression requires the file to be originally compressed with Pixz. Also, Pixz compressed files can still be decompressed with XZ Utils.
I wonder if this new feature has the same requirements as Pixz (ie. only specially compressed XZ files can be docompressed with multiple threads). Also, can files compressed with multiple threads be decompressed with older non-threaded XZ Utils?
