Is this addressed by the debugger in CF8 (that uses an Eclipse plugin), and/or 
products like FusionDebug ?

In any one part of an app, there should be very few variables that that bit of 
code needs access to - this is good compartmentalisation(sp?), separation of 
concerns, encapsulation etc. etc.
Each of those can be easily debugged or tested independently, there fore. It's 
rare I'll actually need to run to a particular line of a whole wired 
application to see what's up, because I can lift the piece with the problem 
out an look at it's unit test, API runner or what ever.
