Add BreakWhen method

[GoogleCodeExporter]

There are some nice Assert methods to simplify assertion but it would also 
be nice to specify breakpoints in a similar manner for use when debugging 
problems. It would certainly be easier than adding conditional breakpoints.

I realise this is slightly (okay, maybe grossly) outside the intentions of this 
project but it just seems like such a nice simple method to add that could aid 
in the 
debugging of some rather annoying collection problems that would otherwise 
require 
some stress with the breakpoint condition dialog.

In hindsight, I'm not convinced anymore.  I don't know why I didn't consider 
it, but 
is it really worth going to this effort when all one needs to write is:

from x in myCollection
where MyBreakpointCondition(x)
Debugger.Break()

?

I would say so too.

In that case, closing for now.
