You can do that already, the debugger knows the project item that is the
target. We already have ProjectTargetItem. You can fetch the project
from the item and get its project manager. From the manager you can
fetch the builder and let it build the target item.

Whats missing is just some more intelligence in the makebuilder and the
qmake builder too (in case of qmake projects)
