For example, it would make debugging so much quicker if functions triggered by some kind of listener (batteryChanged comes to mind) could be told to do what they are doing without stopping for the debugger

Click to expand... Agreed, it could, but that's part of the risk you'd take when you would use it

Click to expand... That's pretty standard in web development, when working with JavaScript. When you're debugging your code in the browser, you're probably very interested instepping through the code you wrote, but you have no wish to step into the code of jQuery (or whatever you're using). So there's an option to specify just about anything as a black box that doesn't get stepped into.
