Ok :)

But jokes aside: it really can be useful - but it's better to make the
variable buffer local.

If you don't have a clue why and where something strange is happening,
it allows to instrument a whole buffer's definitions.  Then you can set
edebug-global-break-condition to a sexp that checks whether the strange
things have started, and with some luck edebug drops you directly inside
the culprit.  If not, hit "d" to check the callers and instrument some
more stuff.

Michael.
