Description
I might be missing something here, but the Breakpoint type is for »Information about a Breakpoint created in setBreakpoints or setFunctionBreakpoints« while DataBreakpoint is for »Properties of a data breakpoint passed to the setDataBreakpoints request« and the BreakpointEvent is only for Breakpoint breakpoints. So it does not make sense to use BreakpointEvent for a change in a DataBreakpoint.
There is no DataBreakpointEvent. Is that an accidental omission?
I might want to create a data breakpoint based on a launch.json configuration option and inform vscode about it, so users can disable the breakpoint if they so choose (or for that matter, users might configure data breakpoints through the debug console instead of the vscode ui, and then I might also want to surface such breakpoints through vscode anyways).

Research direction
Start by reading the protocol definitions for Breakpoint, DataBreakpoint, and BreakpointEvent, along with the setDataBreakpoints request described in the issue. Determine whether data-breakpoint changes require a distinct event and what clients must receive; done means the protocol behavior and any DataBreakpointEvent addition are clearly specified.
