8-), you probably want this for your idle mode.
"GDB Console" used to be in separate view and not part of "lauch/application Console" view.
With the rewrite of the Console Manager in Eclipse 2.x, it was
remove and we took advantage of the code(cleaner and less code to maintain for us)
The problem you have is probably(partly) due to the preference page:
Window -> Preferences -> Run/Debug -> Console
* Show when program writes to standard out/err
This will probably make the console flip/flop between the gdb outputs and the
application/inferior outputs as both are writing logs.
But you have a good point, users may want to see this at the same time.
Something for 3.0, It would be good if we can provide this new "GDB view"
with the new Debug Console framework.
