We currently also don’t provide e.g. exception breaks (because either no-one of us thought of it
or found it useful). There may be already the minor problems in the other direction.
But generally, one could (after adding connection overhead). Though I wouldn’t think of it as a
good idea as it’ll break everything which doesn’t support phpdbg, but xdebug.
But it wasn’t primarily intended to be forward compatible with other debuggers.
