I can see the convenience there, to be sure, being able to put the attribute 
directly on the function you want to debug - but consistency in how attributes 
are handled (admitedly this isn't a strong consistency - some are handled this 
way, some aren't) & consistently seeing the same state for an attribute for a 
given function seems useful.

@probinson - thoughts?
