Debugging an exe without a project
On several occasions I have seen a feature request to debug an exe without a project. I love this feature request because we already have it. Just open the exe as a project. You can even configure the project to attach to the exe instead of launch it if you like. There is even a command line option for this -> devenv.exe /debugexe.

When 'someVariable' changes
Data breakpoints are not supported in the Common Language Runtime.

Managed debugging never supports data breakpoints, so I am not sure why you would only see this on attach. Are you debugging managed code?
