.... not sure I see why this would be better than the existing
algo framework, which loads smaller snippets (rarely 100 bytes)
on an as-needed basis.

However, another way of looking at it:  you suggest a limited and
standardized kind of "debug monitor" to be used in some cases, as
an adjunct to current halt-mode debugging (instead of running in
conjunction with the program-being-debugged).  Again, this is what
the existing "algo" framework does -- just, not with any kind of
standard command set.
