Provide an option to that the Debug View is shown automatically when the debugger breaks

[escamoteur]

Currently if I start my App with another View than Debug View open and the debugger breaks because of a break point or an exception I have to manually switch to the debug view.

It would be incredible if I could set an option to display the debug view in that cases automatically

Thanks for your great Work!

This is a fair feature request. If we get more users asksing for this we would be willing to accept a PR that fixes this.
Thanks

@isidorn Why only as PR? I guess it will be only a very small change but I'm not a Typescript dev and have no idea about the internal structure of VS Code. For your team this should be a quick fix.

Code pointer https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/blob/master/src/vs/workbench/parts/debug/electron-browser/debugService.ts#L275

The following setting should be updated to also cover this case
debug.openDebug to also have the following option "openOnDebugBreak"

No typescript knowledge is needed for this PR
