Do I have to apologize that English is not my first language?

Multiple frames would be a nuisance in gdb-ui, since many users (at
least many that I witnessed) make Emacs full-screen when they use
gdb-ui, because otherwise it's hard to see enough stuff in each one of
the 6 windows.  That is why I suggested to reuse the same windows for
the other threads.
