Re: [8/9] multiple locations

And I suspect this will be the case for many front-ends, not just emacs.
I'm personnaly very grateful of the frontends that work on a full MI
approach, as this is the only way to determine what's missing in MI
as well as stabilizing the MI protocol. But I understand that it's
a challenge to make that transition.

Let's not fight over whether we should always accomodate front-ends
in CLI mode or not.  Let's look instead of the issues on a case-by-case
basis. If we can support the front-end request with a reasonable amount
of effort, then let's do it.
