Again, you do not understand the issue.

Adding this new function -mi-version, will be adding the first command
to the MI command set that is supposed to be used by a front end by
*not* using an MI protocol. It is confusing and non-sensical to add the
first MI command to the MI command set that can not be used by a front
end that speaks the MI protocol.
