Tom, Phil,
Thanks for the update. While it does seem like there is overlap, I
believe it'd be easier to implement both unwinding and symbol
resolution for frames in the same plugin - which could be the reader
or a python script. So, I'll go ahead and submit the frame based
symbol handler code I have for review.
