I seldom use J debug because I like to add tacit information to
explicit definitions as the definitions can be made as I want them to
work like adding an each or rank as well as obverse and adverse. It
would be nice if debug could be extended to handle the anonymous
definitions.

I thought there was something like this... The explicit form:

foo =: verb define
default foo y

always seemed somehow wrong in its redundancy, a limit to the collapsability
of J code. Given that my history of J development precedes the debugging
facilities (he\_\_, I don't even use []stop and []trace in APL all that
much.) the limitations that a tacit default-leftarg form puts on debugging
is immaterial to me.
