A comment on Xtend – Modernized Java.

This all looks OK to me but my first worry would be ease of debugging. I eyeballed the doc but couldn't see anything specific to debugging. Anyone has some experience they could share?

You can debug Xtend code using the Eclipse Java debugger and debug Xtend code just like you would usually debug Java.

During debugging, you can select for every stack frame if you want to see the Java code or the Xtend code. This makes sense since Xtend code gets compiled to Java code which then gets compiled to byte code.
