If you take a look to Ghost proxies, in the proxy handler I have a dictionary in which users can define exceptions. That means, that the proxy handler will do something different than the expected action (like forwarding the message to another object). By default, I added some helper methods that add some of these exceptions. One of these, where a list of method to proper debug/inspect proxies. And the nice thing of being a dictionary is that you can enable/disable them even on the fly.

ok, so the rule is: never subclass ProtoObject to make Debugger crazy..
I will definitely look at Ghost, it has already been on my todo list..

i would say:
�- if you subclass from ProtoObject then you are on your own.. don't expect
any standard tools to work anymore (including debugger, of course).
�

And no, there is no 'fix' for that.. except from merging ProtoObject with Object,
which kills the purpose of having ProtoObject class.

thanks
