Greetings! I've been playing with the new irb/debug integration that was recently released and overall the experience is really great. Having full irb context while being in a full debug session is really nice. The irb:rdbg prompt is easy to work with and simple — kudos!
I'm hoping we can improve the experience a bit though. My understanding is that right now the only way to properly enter this context/experience is to use binding.irb to halt the code, then once in that irb session, manually call debug.
After migrating to the debug gem after years of pry/byebug, it took some time for me to retrain my muscle memory for debugging to use debugger rather than binding.pry etc. but I've found that even with irb's new front-end integration working with the debug gem, the debugger still only loads the default debug front end. Is there any way that we could consolidate the whole experience such that simply using debugger drops into the full irb:rdbg session?
