org.eclipse.tm.tcf.debug. TCF is a services framework, don't
particularly want another one between it and the user, especially with
some of the complex workflows we want to support. Felix and Eugene can
talk more about that at the summit. We didn't get to finish the
conversation we started at EclipseCon.

Creating a custom glue layer between TCF and Platform Debug is certainly an option, but I would think most companies are not eager to reinvent that wheel. After all, that isn't a trivial layer. DSF (sorry, not sure why I said DSDP before) certainly isn't a simplification, but it does provide a lot of common function. Layers are not inherently bad. Otherwise, why not just tie gdb directly to Platform Debug. I think you can see where I'm going. Anyway, I'm very curious to hear more on this next week.
