But a more intrusive modification in Octave will be necessary if we
are to properly implement debugging and incorporate it into an editor,
correct?

Also, what do you think of a worksheet interface instead of a command
line? We can do better than copy the mostly useless Matlab GUI, right?
(It's clearly mostly useless, or else we would have tried making an
imitation GUI much earlier.)

I'll check out your code and try to understand how you're binding to Octave.
