#haltToMaximizedDebugger?

Bill Schwab-2
Hello all,

I'm in the middle of one of those debugging sessions that will be worth it
when it's all over :(    The bugs appear to be on the run, but, it occurs to
me that the earlier stages _might_ have been easier with a variant of #halt
that would skip the notifier (I'm aware of #showWalkbacks but would prefer
to do this for only specific breakpoints) and open the debugger directly to
a maximized window.  The idea is to avoid uncovering the view associated
with the painting code that is the subject of debugging.  Comments?

When possible, I try to debug drawing code by creating a bitmap so that
uncoverings are not an issue.  In this case, the windowing system is
involved, so it would be tricky (perhaps impossible) to set up such an
intermediate stage.

Have a good one,

Bill
