My wishes don't call for an new (platform dependent) debugger, I only 
want *better* high-level (language specific) support in Lazarus. Finally 
I want to debug applications, not an new debugger with different 
behaviour and restrictions on every platform ;-)

In so far I'm not very interested in commandline and remote debugging, 
when these discourage the use of an already existing debugger (gdb...).
