Stage 1: Definition

1. Feature overview

Add-on authors currently only have clunky methods for polish/adjustment of styles of add-ons in development. The Builder allows for quick install/uninstall test cycles, but this is still quite a pain when trying to achieve pixel-perfect styling on for an add-on's chrome UI elements. To better serve this case, we should allow, in concert with the detached chrome UI inspector variant, the ability to open the styles panel and live edit styles for chrome elements.

2. Users & use cases

All add-on authors will immediately benefit from this enhancement, as well our own Firefox developers.
