Thanks for additional explanations!
IDE will not set/remove breakpoints per worker, only for all workers,
this seems to be what users expect.
Yep, there can be some headache if the same or different breakpoints are
hit in different workers, I hope I'll sort it out at IDE side.
I plan to work on this when IntelliJ IDEA 14 EAP starts (early July).
Actually I have no time to work on this earlier as I have very tight
schedule now: a week for urgent tasks, then 2.5 weeks of vacation, then
1.5 weeks of business trip to Google I/O in San Francisco.

FDB will then stop 1 more time on this BP, I guess you don't want that at IDE
