C++ Just My Code Stepping in Visual Studio

GDB can do that already.

   (gdb) help set scheduler-locking 
   Set mode for locking scheduler during execution.
   off  == no locking (threads may preempt at any time)
   on   == full locking (no thread except the current thread may run)
   step == scheduler locked during every single-step operation.
      In this mode, no other thread may run during a step command.
      Other threads may run while stepping over a function call ('next').

The VS debugger can freeze threads too. Neither gdb nor VS can help AFAIK if the user doesn't want to freeze the other threads.

GDB has all sorts of super powers but is there a GUI that works well with GDB?

Yes, gdb --tui ;-)
