I am writing an application that is quite GUI centered. Being able to
break at arbitrary methods helps me to understand the "flow" of
all the notifications and delegate invocations and examine the state
of the system at a certain point of time or event.

Since the GUI is created with Interface Builder and not programmatically
I have to start it from a bundle because the AppKit/Cocoa classes  
depend on it.
At least thats how I understand it so far.

I hope that  answers your question,
yours kodi
