Ok, I have a couple of suggestions of features that could be added to
the wish list.

The Matlab editor has a nice feature where when stopped at a breakpoint
in the editor you can hover the mouse over the variables in the file and
their contents are displayed in a context-menu like display. I find this
quite useful when debugging as I generally have the editor full screen
in a separate window from the main GUI in my setup so I can see more code.

You can also navigate up and down the stack from a drop down list and
the appropriate file is opened or switched to in the editor and the
mouse hovering thing continues to function etc.
