For now, all processing elements within syslog-ng (called LogPipe) breaks into the debugger. Later, I want to implement real breakpoints, where you can selectively attach breakpoints to elements in the configuration file.

This is an amazing idea! I'd love the fact to be able to add breakpoints inside the configuration file. Another thing which would help debugging performance issues, would be the ability to add "tracepoints" to the config file, which for instance would add counters to the stats interface. Thanks for this, it will be very valuable
