--------------------------------+-------------------------------------------
I would like to put a "watch" on certain parts of records. With such a
 watch in place, when writing to such a part of a record (e.g. foo{bar = 2}
 a new break point would be activated and the current line number would be
 shown somewhere. I believe the "watch" terminology is used in other
 debuggers. Often such a breakpoint will halt in a set_foo_bar function.
 This obviously would be the wrong result. The result should be a chain of
 calls like in the output of -xc. The user should be able to quickly move
 through such chains (with showing line numbers, etc).
