All I did was download the dev image, but you are probably correct about the OB 
tools.

This was tried, fairly controversial, and quickly rejected on Dolphin some time 
back.  It's fine until things get ugly, and can then end up tossing work in the 
trash.  Being able to go straight to a debugger is great, but I think it is a 
poor choice for a default.  The opportunity for a recursive meltdown increases 
dramatically, not to mention the performance hit if several try to open "all at 
once."

I have never found it interesting...  moreover I often forget to close
it,  resize, select end then full debugger to resize again...
