>Description:
MI should provide the client with a way to jump to a location, just like the commande line interface does with the "jump" command.

Please note that in that case, the new MI command needs to output an out-of-band record similar to the one that exists for the -exec-next command. Something along the lines of:
*stopped, reason="a-reason", line="8", file,="something.c"

That is needed to give the client a chance to update its state.
