That is something I've considered. However are there any specific concerns?
Limiting remote debugging to localhost really limits its usefulness. My idea
is that users would turn such a feature on and off as needed, and not leave
it on all the time. And if they turn it on, it would be so they could debug
from a different machine, not the local machine. But if the desire is to get
the feature tested more thoroughly I would agree with that.
