Finally played with this. Very cool!

The TreeView for the stacks is nice and compact. But I was wondering how
to present stepping in this view (the InstructionObserver should give
you the basics for the asm-step operation). Do we need a step-one-thread
vs step-all-threads button? Or would that just add to the confusion?
