Q on ProfileEnv

I am trying to create a profile environment for j2ee debugging, which is
quite similar to j2eeprofileenv from the j2eeserver package that is used
for server execution. However, it doesn't look right to subclass it
(because it is not part of the API). So I am writing my own version of 
profile env starting from the j2eeprofileenv. So I need to make sure my 
version is compatible with what is in j2eeprofileenv.

My question is - has anyone else seen this disconnect between execution
and debugging? IMO, this is not very good because execution and 
debugging are are usually closely related. I see a similar issue in java 
exec vs. debugging as well.
