This is a reasonable concern, and I'm glad you thought about it.  But
I have a very simple belief: at one point, parsing the GDB CLI's
output was the only reasonable way to control it, but that hasn't been
true for years.  So, I'm worried about compatibility where it will
affect GDB/MI and where it will confuse human beings, but not where it
will change the CLI output confusingly to programs.
