I will present these commands in the patch that actually implements them. The first couple of patches are ada-lang.c cleanups, self contained and useful on their own, so I think I will be checking them in in a few days, pending comments. The 3rd patch is the actual patch adding the new commands. And the 4th patch updates an already-existing testcase that was already testing Ada exception catching in GDB/MI mode, but using the CLI ("catch ...") commands instead. This is a bit of an RFC/RFA, as the patch introduces new commands, and I want to make sure that we're happy with the user interface. Once we've agreed on the commands' interface, I will write the NEWS and doco patches. Thank you!
