Stage 1: Definition

1. Feature overview

As a web developer, I often find myself wanting to inject a new version of a JS or CSS file into a remote web site I'm currently debugging. The auto-responder (or request filter) would play the role of intercepting requests matching some regexp and redirecting to a configured file on disk.

2. Users & use cases

Users of this feature are web developers working on web sites/apps. The main use case is that of debugging an issue in production for example, or more specifically, testing a fix directly in the environment where it was found. Indeed, finding the cause of the bug, then working out a fix and then testing it locally may sometimes not be enough, actually testing in target environment can help.

I actually use Fiddler a lot and I'm a fan of their auto-responder feature and custom rules, but it would make my life easier if I could directly, say, right click on a request URL (from the console, or from the net tab, when there'll be one), and choose from the menu "respond with ..." and then browse to a file.
