@isidorn , I wanted to check-in with you on this issue. We are releasing our debugger extension soon and it would be great if we can debug multi-threaded without this issue. Do you need any more info from me? |

What does this PR do?
There are a couple of issues with multithreaded debugging. When a second thread gets the first stopped event, the UI does not autofocus to that thread. When the user steps the second thread, the UI switches focus to the first thread.
The proposed fix is to allow focus if the currently focused thread is different than the one that wants to be focused on. Also, only auto-focus to the first thread if there's only one thread.
