We (Chrome DevTools) have had inline breakpoints since at least January 2017: https://umaar.com/dev-tips/129-inline-breakpoints/

The human-friendly variable mapping is very interesting, though. We'd love feedback on how well it works out in the wild.

Happy to discuss collaborating on mapping variables. The current approach is based on re-parsing with babel, but we would like to extend source maps to include relevant mapping data.
