What global settings should be in your opinion? I guess that they should be stored in the `SBDebugger`, and a typical use case for them would be:

  SBTarget target;
  target.HookUpGlobalSettings;

Serialization sounds good, but, to accurately understand you, do you mean "classic" serialization with saving data into the file or serialization just for the time when debugger is run?
