Hi,

Thanks a LOT for your debugging plugin, it's great!

I've got some little ideas on small UX improvements that could greatly help, maybe you'll find them useful too.

Highlighting current line
When entering in debug, the current line is selected but not highlighted, using atom selected line color would more clearly mark where the code is stopped

Turning this:
without highlighted

Into this:
highlighted

Displaying object properties
When focusing on a variable, it is displayed as is it was independent of its object. Focusing on the name of this.value.name will display name as is it was an independent variable. One has to focus on the entire variable, so this.value.name, to grab its value.

Plus, it would be great if a mouseover does the same (as in chrome).

Instead of this:
unlinked variable

Display this:
linked propertie

Configuring the debugger position
Having the choice to position the debugged at the top or bottom of atom would be great! (Chrome has made a classic way of debugging at the bottom).

Plus, it can be cool to hide the debugger, sometimes (having to disable it to hide it seems, hum, extreme ;-).
