I've merged the patch to master and the 8.3 branch.

For sure. This code predates me by a long shot. I wouldn't be
surprised if it was already in the original TUI dump from HP.
Anyway, I've stared at this for a while, and I _think_ this captures
the idea. WDYT?

Subject: [PATCH] Add comments describing tui_ui_out and its fields, cleanup a
bit
This commit add comments describing tui_ui_out and its fields, and
cleans up the code a little bit.
Also switch to using in-class initialization so that the initial
values can be seen alongside the comments.
I see no reason for initializing m_line as -1 instead of 0, since all
the checks in the .c file are of the form "> 0". AFAICS there's no
practical difference between -1 and 0. So it seems simpler to
initialize it as 0.
There's a bit of redundancy in tui_ui_out::do_field_string, which is
fixed by this commit.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2019-03-18 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* tui/tui-out.c (tui_ui_out::do_field_string): Simplify.
(tui_ui_out::do_text): Add comments. Reset M_LINE to 0 instead of
to -1. Fix TABs vs spaces.
(tui_ui_out::tui_ui_out): Don't initialize fields here.
* tui/tui-out.h (tui_ui_out) Add intro comments.
<m_line, m_start_of_line>: In-class initialize, and add describing
comment.
