I agree. But I would go even farther: is it possible to explain why
is it a good idea to make this change? What exactly is wrong with
generating breakpoint events as we do now?

At the very least, I think we should consider all the uses of the
breakpoint events, to judge whether some of them do indeed want to see
internal breakpoints. Is such a list available somewhere?
