Remote Debug Tool to support AT EXIT and CLEAR AT commands

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

We use MFI debug and become very accustomed to using the AT ENTRY * and AT EXIT * commands for debugging PL/I programs. We have moved to Rdz and use the remote debug, its great that set entry breakpoints works but not so great that set exit breakpoints does not, or that the CLEAR AT command cannot be used to remove all break points. Specifically, if you use a commands file and specify AT ENTRY * then run a debug session, it is not possible to clear the the set entry breakpoints if needed mid debug.

    This RFE has recently been reappraised against the wider product strategy, where updates to MFI are no longer considered strategic, and does not fall into IBMs delivery plans for the next 12 month. Whilst this RFE might be valid and we might look to deliver longer term, this RFE is being rejected at this time.
