I introduced "softly dedicated" windows for that kind of situation:
a "softly dedicated" window would not be chosen normally when Elisp code
wants to display some buffer somewhere, but if the user does `C-x b'
then the "soft dedication" gets overruled.
I know Martin doesn't like this concept, but in any case, if we could
try and arrange for gdb-mi to mark its windows as softly dedicated,
I think it would solve your use case.
