The whole omniscient debugging thing is actually a good example of
why I'm asking questions about user experience - while there are lots
of people interested, it gets magazine writeups, etc, there is very
little feedback from actual users that I could find. (Despite the
date of the Dr Dobbs article, this particular project goes back a
couple years.) Real user experience with ODB would be especially
interesting because it is strictly about walking around in collected
trace data; it's not possible to execute anything a second time.
