My belief is the executing stack is not needed for a script, ok may be 
this assertion is wrong.

Yes it will be more reliable. If only we could set some preferences to 
make the stock debugger less impressive. Ideas?

Context: I  want a debugger kids and teachers can use when editing and 
executing Smtalltalk sketch. These users know nothing about Smalltalk 
and little or nothing about programming. There is a lot of unneeded 
information for them in the stock debugger.

Interested on ideas.
