AFAIU, a debugger is a distinct from the editor (or is it an extension of the editor?), so this should be feasible.


I have recently used the JavaScript debugger in Mozilla. It seemed to
work quite good. Just open a webpage, set a breakpoint and off you go.


Yeah, I love it also. But the purpose of the JS debugger in Lepido is different: we want to be able do debug server-side flowscript files. Sure, there is the Swing debugger that comes with Rhino, but having it all in a single environment (including multi-language breakpoints and stacktraces) would definitely be better.

BTW, I think WDT is the old name for what is now know as WTP. All these 3-letters acronyms aren't easy to remind of ;-)
