eh, i wonder if this feature exists or if it's appropriate to add.
 that is to call a function explicitly (just like "call func" command)
but instead of executing the function all at once, the cursor stops at
the entry (as if the function is called at the point and we used step
in to trace into it) and wait for further commands (which can be, say,
step or next, which is very useful)...

Cheers.
