This seems to be the classic Emacs approach of an option for everything.
Sometimes I prefer that someone who has a deeper understanding to make clear
choices for me. In the case of "M-x gdb" I'm striving towards having just one
mode. AFAICS the old mode still remains because the new one doesn't do
everything that the old one does. However, that doesn't mean that we should
encourage or legitimise use of the old one.
