Thanks for the input John.  I've added the [cdi] tag to both the below bugs.

The following bugs are show-stoppers for anyone wanting to switch from
CDI-GDB to DSF-GDB for multi-threaded debugging outside the context of
LWP-based threading:

http://bugs.eclipse.org/280607
[debug view][commands] CLIInfoThreadsInfo parsing tied to LWP

http://bugs.eclipse.org/280631
[debug view] Thread list in Debug view not updated with non-Linux target

It would be great to see the patches in these bug reports applied for
Helios. Can they be added to your punch list please? Perhaps someone
could add "[cdi]" to the summary field of these bug reports.
