As a small quasi-data-point, in my tracepoint tinkering, I noticed that
once breakpoints and tracepoints were merged, I drifted into the habit
of doing "info b" even when I'm only wanting to see the list of
tracepoints. That might just be because the list has tended to be
short, only around five action/event/x/*points in all; I imagine that
filtering by type gets more interesting at 10 and up, as happens with
rbreak and the like.
