So in your case you are dealing with a proper tty?
For eclipse, we fall in the !from_tty case.
Frontends should definetely not be bothered with those queries.
In my mind, a FE should know what it is doing so if it requests
an action like 'record stop' it should not be prompted at all.
This is probably true for any of these queries.
I was originally going to ask Hui always have a !from_tty check,
but now it seems this would not work for emacs.
Can we check if the default interpreter is MI somehow and in those
cases not do the query? The idea is that if one uses MI then
it is not in some user-interactive session.
Just a thought...
