Saving the watched set with the object is useful, because you may
have more than one project you are working on and debugging. It is
nice to start up where you left off --when rev crashes due to some
horrible bug in your code.
On the other hand, if you keep most of your handlers in a stack or
card script, then it is not as useful having them saved on an object
by object basis, because all the scripts are in the same object.
Still, all things considered custom properties are a reasonable and
simple way to keep track of debugging stuff.

Right! Folder of watched vars would be possible. HOWEVER I will
then have to save those watched vars as a custom prop in the object.
How to create a watched var: drag a var into the "watch" folder.
Caveat: no folders no watched vars. Can't have everything.
Don't store it as a custom property on the object -- it's not that
permanent. It would be more than enough to store an array with the
id of the object as the key. That would make it live session-long.
Some development environments I work in don't even do that -- they
just store the list of called-out variables/expressions for the
duration of the session, without regard to what script is running.
That actually proves sufficient for most of my purposes.
Dragging is okay I suppose, but double-clicking is faster and
easier. It's a simple command -- add this to the list. I don't need
to be able to specify _where_ in the custom list it goes. It would
be nice to be able to reorder the custom list if I wanted to, but
generally it is short enough that it doesn't matter.
