Is that really true, though? Do they have any other choice but gdb/MI?

The responses sound more like they welcome a "better"/enhanced debugger 
backend (who wouldn't), but they've got a good, mature product and 
plenty of other work to do, too. So MI is "good enough".

We shouldn't confuse "good" with "good enough". But perhaps the cynic is 
me needs to be beaten into submission again.
