Yes, I'm looking for a PERSISTENT breakpoint. The F9 method is great
but in more complex projects I'd like to have persistent breakpoints
too.

What I'm missing is the "set step on" directive of FoxPro which
suspends execution. You can then manually inspect/modify whatever you
want and later on "resume" execution.

So, what I'm looking for is a function like

  win32ui.PythonWinPleaseHearMyPlea(
      "suspend here as if F9 was pressed")

To resume later on I could press F5 as usual.
