I think there are 2 ideas here.

For MI we can just add options, as you say.  This causes no problems for
compatibility; it may be a bit of a pain to implement, but nothing
crazily difficult, just some more virtual methods in breakpoint.

I thought Andre's proposal about "set breakpoint syntax 2011" was
specifically for the CLI, where it would switch from linespec to
something new.  That's what I was responding to.

Yeah.  I filed a bug for this:
