> JSC should be able to "resolve" the breakpoint in order to handle this case. In fact, this will also resolve many other cases such as setting the breakpoint on the line with comments. That's what all debuggers do. It should return the particular statement position it did set the breakpoint on. I do realize that this is an extra work for the JSC debugger, but there is no other way scenarios such as pretty printing, setting breakpoints on comments, etc. would work.

Ok. I'll do the work for JSC.
The last question is can we let front-end to send the position of breakpoint as (line, -1) when it's not in "Pretty Print" mode? Since JSC just knows the "accurate" position of current statement, it's a pain for JSC if front-end changes some rules a little, it may cause debugger disable to work. If JSC knows it's not in "Pretty Print" mode, it can just match line number, so if there is a little rule mismatch, at least the basic debugger can work.
