Re: [cdt-debug-dev] feature work

Mikhail,

Certainly; the new view would get its debug context from the Debug 
view. It just wouldn't be tied to the Registers View.

Well, I can certainly try to see if I can design the GUI of the 
feature to fit in the details pane. I also like the idea of the 
properties dialog. It's application modal from what I can tell, but I 
don't think that presents a work flow problem.

Thanks for the suggestions.
John
