Details

Firefox launches a lot of child processes. These aren't automatically debugged in Visual Studio. This makes catching breakpoints hard.

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/771039/can-visual-studio-be-made-to-debug-child-processes-like-windbg has some solutions to the problem. We should see if we can incorporate them.
