Condition added to the breakpoint (that can check worker if needed) or
just inserting some diagnostics code can do the trick easier, I think.
My experience makes me think that users do not want to go down to the
FDB commands level.

I'm pretty sure that in some scenarios, for worker that generate first
impredictable results and then for some, later the code path fails, the user if
he has 10+ workers, won't want to go through all workers instances but will
want to filter them as soon as he has met the failling impredictable situation,
this couldn't be easily or even not at all solved by unit tests, the reason why
being able to debug at this level could be important, ok, it seems an edge
case, but this case will be met I'm sure in complicated applications.
It is not a feature for me to play with FDB through IntelliJ, the goal with
this feature is to find an easy way to debug at worker instance level.
Given this feature exists already and could be more user friendly and not hiden
by default made me thought it was easy to implement / integrate in the
Debug/Console view, if not, I will use the trick you gave me if I met this kind
of scenario but what about other people they don't know the trick ?
Do I make sense ?

Not sure how much extra work it would cost to add this feature as default in the form of
a command line input at the botton of the debug/console view and the output in the main
part of the console view but it would be a "very nice to have" to interact
directly with FDB and give us the possibility to play at worker instance level.
