I think this was done on purpose, as the debug view is intended to drive 
the debug session. Leaving the editor (or other view) maximized when a 
breakpoint/suspend is hit, meant the user did not know that the suspend 
occurred. Obviously, we need more flexibility here. This may be the same 
as the following bug/feature request:

Yes, that will be a good way to proceed.
