Details

When hovering over the line number area to add a breakpoint, the line that the breakpoint will be added to should be highlighted in some way. 

This highlight should not conflict with the active line highlight indicating cursor position.

This is useful in particularly heavily indented pieces of code, where it may be ambiguous what line of code corresponds to the hovered position. This will aid users in correctly selecting a line on which to break, and save them from squinting and or tracing with their finger :)
Good idea.

In the meantime, you can press Cmd/Ctrl + B to set a breakpoint on the line your cursor is on.
