Hi Mikko, I think that it'd make sense using the PyDev debugger in that scenario -- it should be a pretty 'generic' remote debugging tool :). And it should be straightforward to integrate it -- you can take a look at some unit-tests to guide with examples: https://github.com/aptana/Pydev/blob/master/plugins/org.python.pydev.debug/pysrc/tests_python -- the test_debugger.py is the main file there). The files https://github.com/aptana/Pydev/blob/master/plugins/org.python.pydev.debug/pysrc/pydevd_comm.py has the CMD_* constants showing most of the control you should care about ( all the commands received externally are handled through pydevd.py/PyDB/processNetCommand -- and some of those CMD_* constants should be handled in the client). It should be a matter of calling pydevd.settrace() with the proper parameters in the thread you want to trace (and having a proper client as the UI for the debugger).
