With the current C/C++ Remote Application launch, gdbserver starts the
one process that will be debugged.  You are right that it would be the 
environment of the gdbserver that would have to be changed to support
an Env tab.  This could be done by the RSE logic that we use to start
gdbserver automatically.

It would make sense for the automatic remote launch.  How
useful it will be?  You are in a better position to know since you are
the first to bring it up :)
