Assuming bug #2209 were fixed, yes you could. It would be nice if that
were at least an option though, if not the default. I think of them as
similar to breakpoints. Perhaps GDB should distinguish between
temporary checkpoints and regular checkpoints, with the latter being
permanent of course.

Presumably when you restart you can create another checkpoint if you wish
to go back there again.
