Research direction
Research the current debug session management in Theia's backend, particularly how sessions are created and their lifecycle. Investigate existing persistence mechanisms like workspace storage or user preferences. Examine the debug extension's contribution points. The maintainers may need to clarify the scope and desired persistence mechanism (e.g., database, file system).
