Hi,

I just replied the following in the BR (not sure why I wrote it there,
wasn't thinking..)

I would expect it to be safe. The case we had so much trouble with
came from updating of the breakpoint editor markers, but I can't see
any marker changes happening from entering a gdb command (event though
in some cases there should be marker changes) so we shouldn't end up
in that mess from this.

But why does the focus move away from the input box in the first place?
