How to open a coredump? #413

Workarounds:

Load Binary (or have it already loaded), then execute core /path/to/core.file in the GDB window
start a new session with /path/to/gdb --core=/path/to/core /path/to/binary

Ideally there would be an option to do so directly in a session, and ideally gdbui would recognize that there is no process and disable the step into/out commands and friends with their shortcuts.

As a follow-up to the 2nd option - one can start gdbgui with --gdb-cmd "/path/to/gdb --core=/path/to/core /path/to/binary", not tested but that should work also.
