This is fine with me, though it's a bit unfortunate that "permanent breakpoint"
has some other meaning in GDB.  It means a breakpoint already planted in the
target without GDB involvement, one that GDB can't insert or remove.
I can't imagine many options left, so I'd suggest "temporary" vs
"no-temporary"/"non-temporary"...
