Whoa, I don't think it matters if FE's are using this feature. Read the
manual,
This mechanism is provided as an aid to developers of GDB/MI clients and not as
a reliable interface into the CLI. Since the command is being interpreteted in an
environment that assumes GDB/MI behaviour, the exact output of such commands is
likely to end up being an un-supported hybrid of GDB/MI and CLI output.
