Sort of. This has been started by Didier Nadeau and then continued by
me but sadly, I got carried away and have not done the last bits so it
can be pushed.

However, I'm using this feature heavily and keep more-or-less
up-to-date GDB with this support (and some other hacks/fixes waiting
to be polished and submitted, see

Here you may find example how I use it:

Let me know if you have any questions, let me know.

I'd like to take the opportunity and apologise to all reviewers
for not finishing it yet - hopefuly I'll find long-enough period of
quiter time to finish this.
