Debugging within Kdevelop 1.2 - Feature request

[Steven Suson]

I must agree with John. Not too long ago, I began working with IBM's Visual Age
for Java. It was only by accident that I discovered how to get into the
debugger, which was the behavior that Serge described, i.e. set the breakpoint
and then run the applet. This was extraordinarily counter intuitive to me, and
others that I explained it to. When I want to run, I want to hit the run button.
When I want to debug, I want to hit the debug button. Just my 2 cents worth...
