Comment (by bonefish):
When the stack trace is set to NULL, how about delaying the operation for
a short time (e.g. 0.5 s)? When stepping, in most cases a new stack trace
will be set long before the end of the delay. When running or stepping
into a syscall that waits, I don't think the small delay will cause any
confusion.
Without looking at the source, I guess the implementation should be fairly
straight forward. A BMessageRunner could be used for triggering the delay.
Since most model objects in Debugger are referenceable anyway, it
shouldn't be a problem too keep them a while longer than one would usually
do.
