As of 2020, similar behavior still occurs in a specific situation:

• You open a source-mapped document, i.e. it shows "(source mapped from ...)" on the bottom of the window
• You prettify it
• You place a breakpoint in the prettified version
• The debugger will stop in the ugly source-mapped file

The solution seems to be to go to the original source from which you mapped, prettify that, and place the breakpoint there.
