I support reducing the gestures needed for getting into the debugger and stepping through code. A hot-key for debug-it sounds good but if we do that then we should go all the way and fix the focus problem too! When the debugger opens, give keyboard focus to the stack-frame list or, if mouseOverForKeyboard is set, to the widget under the hand. Currently I have to move the mouse out and back in to gain focus and start debugging with hot-keys.

Hi,

I am still a bit puzzled that debugIt has no keyboard shortcut. I think ctrl-shift-d (viz ctrl-d for doIt) would fit. In TextEditor and ParagraphEditor, this is used for Duplicate:

duplicate: aKeyboardEvent "Paste the current selection over the prior selection, if it is non-overlapping and legal. ..."

I have never used it and it seems to be non-obvious. Who is with me overtaking the shortcut for debugIt?
