That is quite possible.

I actually am better than I thought ;-) The command line parameters are 
already in the code.

--fork-child		to follow into the child
--fork-parent		to follow the parent

If you would start the script to be debugged via the IDE, you would have the 
same options available in the debug/run dialog.
