The recipe is simple - right-click on a handler that is in a library stack
- you can't go to definition.  I believe that you can't step into a library
handler, either, during debugging.  The only way to debug library handlers
is to put debug checkpoints in the libraries.

On the first day, God created the heavens and the Earth
On the second day, God created the oceans.
On the third day, God put the animals on hold for a few hours,
   and did a little diving.
And God said, "This is good."
