Re: [platform-debug-dev] Default breakpoint group

["Jared Burns" <jaredburns@xxxxxxx>]

We'd have to add API (to the BPManager?) to set/get the default group.  
Third parties would have to do the work of actually honoring the setting  
for any breakpoints that they create. Unless and until people actually ask  
for this feature, I don't think it's worth imposing this requirement.

I added the default group based on the initial implementation of  
breakpoint groups. The feature doesn't make a lot of sense with the  
current implementation.
