I don't know about long term, but the most common use case is
currently all-stop.  Certainly for the short term, I think it
makes more sense to implement all-stop first.  (I think you'll
run into fewer GDB bugs with all-stop...)

It depends upon the goals of the ugdb project.

If the goal is to demonstrate utrace, then support for only one mode
might be sufficient.  (I'll let someone else make that determination.)

If the goal is to become a full-fledged debug agent ala gdbserver,
then ugdb will need to support both.
