You actually can debug through SSH to the emulator.

I connect to the emulator using putty and creating an SSH connection to localhost:5522

Once in, you type debug. That will cause some lines to show up, but won't give you back a prompt. Then you simply hit enter.

You can get help by typing help or ?

It is a real pain to use, but you can set breakpoints continue and step through your code. You can also see info on locals and args. You can also use the print command to display information about objects.

Things like this are why the SDK has not been released publicly. Most developers are used to advance debugging interfaces and something like this can be hard for some people to work with.
