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.

The debugger could store the watched variables/expressions on a per- object basis (that's what I suggested) without using custom properties. I don't often have Rev crash, but the debugging information could easily be written to a preference file, which would make it as permanent as a custom property without having it live in my project.

Still, all things considered custom properties are a reasonable and simple way to keep track of debugging stuff.

Debugging is an inherently temporary process. Custom properties are permanent. To me that settles it right there. But if there is an included tool to say, "I'm done debugging, remove all the custom properties you were using," then I could live with it. I'd still wonder why an array saved to a preference file wouldn't have worked.
