Please implement data breakpoint when using Visual C++ compiled code on Windows

I see that this has been logged a number of times and closed with 1410 as being used to track this. But 1410 talks about GDB. But if you are on Windows using Visual C++ PDB files, there is no way to set data break points and its a different development issue. So please do not mark this as a duplicate of 1410.

The documentation says that if a debugger supports data breakpoints, you can set them in the VARIABLES section. However, I can find nothing there for this extension while debugging Microsoft C++ under Windows. Is it missing or somewhere else?

This extension is awesome, super, but being able to set data breakpoints is very important and that appears to be missing?

I love VSCode and use it by default now, and the apparent lack of data breakpoints is baffling. Sometimes they are indispensable. I would rate this as the top feature I need.

Start by reviewing how the extension handles Microsoft C++ debugging on Windows with PDB files and how the VARIABLES section exposes debugger features. The issue names no source files or tests, so first map the existing debugging entry points. Done means users can set and manage data breakpoints for Visual C++ code from the documented interface.
