I'm not aware of anyone using this command - I don't see how they currently
could really. I think its less likely to break existing behaviour than this
change:
2005-05-17 Daniel Jacobowitz <dan@codesourcery.com>
Dennis Brueni <dennis@slickedit.com>
* stack.c (print_frame): In MI mode, output a fullname attribute
with the stack frame.
which must change the output for every frontend using MI.
I don't see how MI can evolve without changing its behaviour. If it is
significantly different presumably a new level can be added as before.

I'll be happy to add testcases if there is a likelihood that my patch will be
approved.

I've just copied it from another part of the manual. In the node
"GDB/MI Command Description Format" it says:
Manual> Note the the line breaks shown in the examples are here only for
