Summary: SaveBarState called too many times

Initial Comment:
I have noticed that after a debuggin session in
Pythonwin my 
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Python 2.3\Python for Win32
registry key can grow very large.
It seems that the way I work:
 - step trough the code in debuger.
 - find and fix an error.
 - stop debugger.
 - repeat.
provokes uncontrollable frenzy of writing to registry
the state of toolbars.  On a few occasions I ended up
with over a thousand 'ToolbarDebugging-Bar%s' %i
entries i beeing as high as 1500.
If not stopped Pythonwin gives <Could not load toolbar
state> message and continue to work but very slowly.
My workaround is:
 - delete the offending registry key
 - start Pythonwin
 - set the preferences to my liking.
 - start debugging sessions.  Set prefrences again.
 - close Pythonwin.
 - comment out line 462 in Pythonwin\pywin\debugger.py

I have observed the same behaviour for versions of
Pythonwin going back as far v.154 on Windows2000 and Win98
