It's something I've already put in for on the wish list with Flash and I'll continue to ask for it to be opened up. But for right now, we're stuck.
The only way I've found to pause the non-debug player is by making a call via local connection where a response is waiting. Problem is, you can't inspect that paused SWF. It won't respond to a subsequent call from another local connection etc.
So, the thought I had been working on was to send variable data via local connection at a break point. But it's really not a breakpoint by this time, and it doesn't work the way you would use any other debugger/breakpoint scenario. it's essentially a method call, which boiled down is no different than calling Xray.trace() with variable data.

I don't think this is a possible way of going with current Flash
performances. It have already think about it and concluded that it's not
possible to write any reasonable debugger for Flash without some Debug
Player support.
