@Sean,  In what way will it make halts more annoying?  As far as I can
tell, it eliminates FIVE mouse-clicks from #halt, and #haltOnce behaviour
is unchanged.

Now ideally the debugger should not step into the halt at all when you
<Step Over> - but this change eliminates FIVE mouse-clicks from #halt,
making #halt behave the same as #haltOnce.   I can live with that.   Lets
do the simple thing first (the ticket has been open 11 months), and leave
the potentially harder thing to make it right later on - unless of course
this creates other problems.
