The patch for the MI commands was the implementation I mention, and it seems that it has been used by Teawater as well for some kind of testing.  We have also tested them out and used them for a quite a while, as a patch to gdb used with Simics.  So in that sense, the MI commands are not newly invented, but rather a commit of something that we have been using for a few years already.  

Best regards,
