[Cuis-dev] Improve "debug action" for MVCMenuMorph

[Juan Vuletich]

Hi Facu,

I see the problem, but I think your solution is "too clever". I prefer a 
simpler approach that is easier to understand, and more robust against 
future changes. The user will need to do a couple of clicks in the 
debugger, but I think that's ok.

Just pushed it. Please take a look.

Thanks,
