Wouldn't it be helpful if the pdb showed the path to the current breakpoint as a clickable link? For this to work, it seems that the path needs to follow a specific format, like so:
"File "/full/path/to/file.py", line XY"

Currently, it displays the breakpoint like this:
"> /full/path/to/file.py(XY).func()"

This might be very IDE dependent, but i. e. PyCharm interprets the first format as a clickable link and takes you straight to the line of code that contains the breakpoint. Very helpful.

IDLE has Go to File/Line menu too. I think it would also help there. (Terry, can you confirm?) Not to mention that it would be one thing less to explain to beginners when using pdb.
