(I'm going through old bug reports that unfortunately weren't resolved
at the time.)

I'm not quite sure I understand the request, but you just want to be
able to type in further switches to be used here?

  ;; TODO Why arg here?
  (gud-def
   gud-go (gud-call (if gdb-active-process
                        (gdb-gud-context-command "-exec-continue")
                      "-exec-run") arg)
   nil "Start or continue execution.")

That seems easy enough to add, I guess.

> Also, please add a keyboard binding for gud-go (e.g. C-c !)

There's:

gud-until is an interactive compiled Lisp function.
It is bound to C-x C-a C-u.

So perhaps something else under C-x C-a?

I don't use these functions a lot myself, so I don't really have much of
an opinion on either requests.  Perhaps Eli has an opinion here; added
to the CCs.
