If you select the process it doesn't work, but only on thread level.

If debugging multi-process, you often care about the process and not the thread level and should be able to pin the process.

I think this proposal makes sense.

GdbPinProvider was not coded to handle multi-process, but it should be possible.  I think the idea is that if I pin to a process, then any frame selected within that process will update the pinned view, but any frame for another process won't.
