> Hi. When using a python debugger, it would be nice to be able to debug ops as
> they are run locally by --runner DirectRunner however it seems that Beam
> forks the process to actually run the ops. Unfortuatnely most python
> debuggers (mine is pydevd) don't support following forks. It it possible to
> add a flag to DirectRunner to keep the DIrectRunner in-process?
