very nice! I was just reading an old post
http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2007-04/msg00127.html about a plugin vs
scripting interface, Python finally get the point, it's now easier to
write a Python script which handles breakpoints than a GDB patch!

from my perspective, _internal breakpoints_ should be silent by
default, because they're 'internal', as their name says.

Option 1) is quite similar `b.silent`, so it's up to you


Cordially,

Kevin
