Yes, only half of the functions are implemented. Not speaking for the
GDB people, but only for myself, I don't think they have any intention
on implementing the rest of the commands. However, if you need a certain
command maybe it would be done for you. However, I think that if you
need certain commands, it would be much better to add an mi command,
rather than use the CLI output.
