That seems okay, its probably useful to keep the stop reason of the thread at what it was when you suspended it.  But that means  when gets asked to do its action again, the action is stale and does the wrong thing.  If that's what's going wrong,

So if you just change the copy operation to only copy over threads which aren't user-suspended, then you should be set.

Ah, right.  We store aside the list of thread indexes, not the list of threads, and only use it to check for missing threads.

It would be pretty straightforward to write an API test that runs a process, sets a breakpoint, hits it on one thread, suspends that thread, then hits it on another thread and make sure the action didn't run twice on the second stop.

This method executes only once and saves results of execution so the next time we call PerformAction it will not execute breakpoint's  callback and we have no chance to catch action. Wrote unit tests for ProcessEventData that mirror behaviour. 

I was suggesting something like having a Python breakpoint action that increments a Python variable.  Hit the breakpoint first on thread A.  That should increment it by one.  Then suspend thread A and run to hit the breakpoint on thread B.  If your fix is right, then only the thread B action is run, so the python variable will have a value of 2.  But if the suspended thread action also runs, the variable will have the value of 3.  That seems like a pretty easy test to write, and will ensure that the correct behavior is produced.

This patch has gotten hard to read because the latest version seems to have lots of unrelated changes, maybe from running clang-format over code you aren't actually changing?  Can you remove all these irrelevant changes and repost the patch?
