I'd like to hear the motivation first, because doing so goes against
the whole design of gdb-mi.  It makes little sense to me to have a
package that provides certain features as inherent part of its design,
only to disable those features on a whim.  Users who don't like the
gdb-mi UI can simply refrain from displaying those windows, they
aren't displayed by default.
