Description
The current break behaviour prevents other messages from being forwarded when a breakpoint is hit (whether they match any breakpoints or not). It should be possible to choose to only queue the messages that are affected by the breakpoints rather than all messages proxied.

Research direction
Start by tracing the proxy break behaviour and how messages are queued when a breakpoint is hit. Add an option that queues only messages affected by breakpoints while forwarding unmatched messages, and verify that both matching and non-matching messages follow the selected behaviour.
