Saw the screenshots and thought "this looks amazingly useful" :-)
It was, but, the version from the tarball doesn't seem to match up quite
with:
http://www.zope.org/Members/hathawsh/ZDebug/example

Using your sample 'bad' DTML, I got the same but the 'Contains name?'
column didn't show up :-(

Any ideas? (yes, I was tracking down a security exception, and that
column may have been really useful ;-)

...speaking of which, this is related to the following PTK Tracker
Issue:

http://www.zope.org/Products/PTK/Tracker/110

while Andy and I were playing with some stuff, we managed to make ZDebug
cry by giving the discussion_thread_view DTML method the 'Member' proxy
role and then viewing it from a Member's toolbox (what's the new name
for that?) on the left:

Error Type: TypeError
Error Value: not all arguments converted

(if any more details would be helpful, please drop either of us a mail,
traceback in ps)

Well, thanks for the product, it looks like being _extremely_ useful
:-))

Urm, I'm sure it's the community who should be saying that to you :P
