I just wanted to post this to say how much I appreciate the new debugging paradigm. I intellectually understood it, but to make it work was just awesome. I have a Rich UI client that calls a service in response to a UI event. I put a breakpoint in the UI event handler, in the service, and in the callback function in the UI. I fire the UI event (an onChange, so it's just tabbing out of the field) and I hit the breakpoint in the event handler. I resume and I hit the event in the service. I resume again and I hit the breakpoint in the callback function.
You might think I'm being silly, but if you've ever programmed serious client/server code, you know just how powerful this is. Especially since the service used JDBC to get a record from a remote database - I got to see the record populated in the service and then the same record in the callback! This is the most fun I've had playing with a new programming tool in a long time. You will be reading about this in the near future in a magazine or two...
