All profiling is done at the function-call level, so it does provide 
code coverage for functions, but you cannot get coverage for each line 
or execution block.

Technically, the JSD API already has enough to do it per-line - you'd 
just single-step the code repeatedly rather than just waiting for a 
function call or return. I think it'd really hurt performance, though, 
so it would definitely need to be an extra/separate option.

I don't know of any plans to add it, however.
