Yes; I think my guile-debugging package (available from gna.org) pretty much covers this area, and if there are missing features it would probably make sense to fill them in in guile-debugging, rather than port SLIME as a whole. I'd be very happy to help someone work in this area. (FWIW, I was unaware of SLIME until I came across Andy's blog entry recently, but was then surprised by how similar SLIME's architecture and approach are to guile-debugging's. It's also worth noting that guile-debugging builds on the nice low-level debugging features in the Guile evaluator code, which I presume are a bit different from corresponding features in other Schemes.)
