There has never been a proper API. The only thing that has been 
supported was to actually load plug-ins, and that's it.

The way plug-ins work in TextMate is through Objective-C method 
swizzling. That is, replace existing methods with your own 
implementation. This is actually a lot easier now in TextMate 2 since 
it's open source.

BTW, if you manage to implement a plug-in for this (or a fork) perhaps 
this could be generalized to create a debugger API for other plug-ins as 
well.
