I think it is important that Insight continue to support the habits of
those switching from the command-line gdb.  However, Insight hacking
time has historically been limited, so this doesn't always happen --
perfectly understandable imo.

Feel like doing some Insight hacking? :-)
Failing that maybe a PR is the best bet.

Ideally we could extend sessions to capture this information.  I
rarely do any non-native debugging, so when I wrote the session code I
didn't add this feature.  There is some minimal support for it;
expanding it would make a lot of sense.  I think it would be best if
this work (or at least a specification for it) were done by someone
who is really familiar with non-native debugging.
