You won't be able to set a breakpoint on a specific source line, but setting a 
breakpoint by name, such as "b TargetProperties::SetNonStopModeEnabled" has 
worked before and keeps working with this implementation. It will take you to 
Target.h:106 which is the shared source location for all boolean set functions.

Yeah, this isn't great, but at least it's an established pattern that's used 
all over our code base.

Oh! I *didn't* know that. Is there a good reason to keep these properties there 
or would it make sense to just build a central place for all properties.
