Also maybe also my initial suggestion is worth a though?

A way to just stop some classes opening in the debugger.

It could work like breakpoints only being per document , having like an
"Hide from debugger" , "Clear hide list",  etc , maybe a button by the
toggle breakpoint/watch expression buttons.  or a menu when you right click
the tab.

Just a thought.
