I think it might well become a common use-case in some circumstances. 
The application we have, which we will connect eclipse to as python IDE, 
might typically run may days, maybe even weeks (typically loading a lot 
of user data). In the application the user might do many 'little' python 
editing sessions, some of which may involve debugging.
In such a case it would be severely inconvenient to restart the application.
I don't know what the debugging overhead is -- I'm sure you know that 
better -- but it seems a bit half-baked needing to have trace on for the 
whole of the rest of the session just in case.
