BVRDE; a personal project of mine, yet hosted on sourceforge.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/bvrde/

I don't have the luxury of installing the latest GDB with my tool, and 
because of network latency, small and concise MI messages are 
important.

Please be aware that the majority of MI consumers are not on this 
list. What may seem nifty to the 2-3 IDE implementations that 
discusses MI changes here may not be easy for Apple, Wind River 
or the scores of other tools that have integrated with the current 
MI interface.
I feel confident that you will eventually find the best path, but if you
do introduce breaking changes, please consider putting it in a 
milestone where you can add all, not just the non-stop stuff, pending
breaking changes.
Adding non-stop to MI3 now, then adding MI4 with a few more 
breaking changes a couple of months later, MI5, MI6... well, it going 
to be a mess and you'll end up with a lot of tools hard-coded to MI2 
forever. Surely these changes are needed, just appreciate the 
impact on tool developers.
