Ok, I've created a public API for that in the "com.python.pydev.debug"
plugin. You can get it at the next nightly build (svn: 2851) -- it'll
be available in a final release for 1.4.8.

The API is:

com.python.pydev.debug.remote.client_api.PydevRemoteDebuggerServer.startServer()
com.python.pydev.debug.remote.client_api.PydevRemoteDebuggerServer.stopServer()
com.python.pydev.debug.remote.client_api.PydevRemoteDebuggerServer.isRunning()

(those are static methods)

Cheers,

Fabio
