For "stepping in the current source" (given a mixed-source) I look for a 
way to "silent step" / "silent next".
This will be useful for example if you debug within Bison and/or Flex 
generated sources and don't want to step through the state / token 
machine, having only the Bison / Flex _source_ be visible.

Getting the source name from the frame and comparing this after a 
step/next is no big problem in GDB using python
    gdb.selected_frame().find_sal().symtab.fullname()

Using GDB in TUI mode I commonly "stay" in the source I'm interested in 
this way, but the GDB command line gets "flooded" with all the 
intermediate frame positions I'm not interested in.

So: is there a way to do a "step"/"next" with suppressing the normal 
output and mi stop events normally send?

Thank you for any pointers,
Simon
