Is there a Breakpoint Plugin for Visual Studio?

Background

In some sufficiently large applications, you can spend more time figuring out how to drill down to the various layers than you do actually debugging: That's the case with a piece of software I work on now. Layout/separation of concerns issues aside, it'd be nice to have a breakpoint plug-in that would allow you to load breakpoints depending on which Bugzilla/Jira/Fogbugz/SVN defect entry you're working off of.

Question

Do any plug-ins exist for Visual Studio that allow you to 'save' toggled breakpoints to a file, allowing you to load various breakpoints depending on what bug you're working on?

As an adjunct to that question; if there aren't any such plug-ins, can anyone point me to a 'good' (quite a subjective term, but in this case I mean explanatory and useful) resource on creating plug-ins for Visual Studio?

Looks interesting, have you used it?

No... but it comes from a respected author (and has source available).

I'll take a look see; does it meet the criteria I laid out?

Break point analyzer is a really useful tool for debugging huge projects.

I found this based on a recent Google search:
