This would allow us to get to the current execution contents (selected target/process/thread/frame), mainly so we can get the lldb_private::Target so we can get the platform from it so we can correctly make the determination if the option should be valid or not for the current context.

You can't depend on the command interpreter, since the selected target in the command interpreter might be TargetA, but we are executing the breakpoint action commands for a breakpoint hit on TargetB.  But I assume Zachary just hadn't gotten to this yet.

The purpose of the OptionValidator is to determine, based on some arbitrary set of conditions, whether or not a command option is valid for a given debugger state.  An example of this might be to selectively disable or enable certain command options that don't apply to a particular platform.
