Stage 1: Definition

1. Feature overview

Websites use various mechanisms to gather information about their users' computer configurations to help them troubleshoot problems that arise. They have exception reporting tools that they build to gather information that helps them track down bugs.

There are limits to the data they can gather in these instances, because the developers are working completely in web content. For this feature, we'd want to provide a mechanism for users to provide the developer with access to more troubleshooting information about their session.

The most extreme and useful (and hard to implement and with the most privacy implications) variation of this would be to take the whole state of the browser for the given site, serialize it and then be able to load that state into the developer's browser. Between what developers can build for themselves today and that extreme, there are likely many alternatives. This feature will morph into what we see as the best alternative.
