Re: [cdt-dev] Why the gdb traces are enabled by default?

[xgsa <xgsa@xxxxxxxxx>]

I think that gdb traces have no value for the CDT user (I mean not a 
developer and not a user analyzing the problem in CDT/gdb). However, 
they are shown in consoles list and reveal the CDT internals. Could you 
please take an example when the traces could be useful (except of the 
enumerated cases which seems not very often in CDT release)?
