Would it serve your purposes if it wasn't a drawer but a splitter in
the debug window? It was odd to have it a drawer, 'cause Xcode doesn't
really use drawers anywhere else (the one other use I remember in the
Build Settings window was also removed in 1.5).
One of the things that ticked me off about the drawer was the whole
maximize the debug window to see lots of stuff in the source or
variable view, open the drawer, oops, make the window smaller to be
able to see the drawer then resize the drawer, then have to close the
drawer and maximize the window again to see lots of stuff two-step I
always ended up doing.
If it were a splitter, you could close it and the pane above would
automatically get it's real-estate, which might make this a little
nicer.
I talk to lots of folks about the debugger - both engineers at Apple &
in kitchens, and very very seldom heard anybody who liked the drawer.
OTOH, I heard the opposite opinion, and got hero-boy points on a number
of occasions for showing how to get the window version.
Go figure...

I don't know when this poll was conducted, but I would have voted for
keeping it the way it was. The drawer approach just seemed to make
sense.
If any of you liked the drawer, then please join me in filing
enhancement requests. They'll be marked as duplicates (and for all I
know, mine might be a duplicate as well) but they will send a
message...
