Another thing you might want to consider in the design is to allow debugger interaction with simple key bindings from file buffers. Now to send commands to the debugger you'd have to use the *gud* buffer, or use complicated key bindings. Compare to how `edebug' works, the buffer is made read-only, and simple bindings like: n c d can be used.
