Per the second half of the discussion in https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=319503 , I'd love to be able to turn off string expansion in the variables/expressions views. A simple checkbox in the debugger config would be perfectly adequate. They clutter the already-busy debugging UI, and while they're _essential_ for tracking down funky string issues or dealing with binary data, I imagine such cases probably constitute well under 1% of the overall time people spend in their debugger. No reason to overly complicate >99% of cases for the sake of the small minority.

Reproducible: Always
