Adding debugger support is not at the top of my list of new features
to implement. Personally I try to do test-first development by writing
unit tests alongside new code, which in my experience reduces the need
for running a debugger. When I get stuck using 'irb' often helps me
out.

If anyone would like to work on adding debugger support to jEdit's
Ruby Editor Plugin, please get in contact with me. The plugin is
written in Java and is released as free software under the GNU General
Public License (GPL).
