Multiple breakpoints are new, so nothing happened in MI previously did it?
The format of CLI output for pending breakpoints has currently changed and
in that context Vladimir said:

    ...And probably the only way to change the situation is to decide that MI
    is the future, and actively discourage use of CLI for anything, to the
    degree of immediately refusing any request mentioning CLI in relation to
    any frontend.

Refusing requests mentioning CLI and not providing functionality in MI seems
to leave the frontend developer between a rock and a hard place.
