DOM Inspector
UI Improvements
There is considerable scope for improvement to the UI of the DOM Inspector.
- ability to remember sessions
- show inspector views as tabs instead of dropdown list items
- autocomplete for the URL bar
- consolidate mismatched UI items
- inline search for computed style, etc. views with save ability
- computed style etc saves scroll position
- option to inspect the current window at startup instead of the current document
- option to add "inspect this element" to right-click menu (like https://addons.mozilla.org/extensions/moreinfo.php?id=434)
- The "find a node to inspect by id, tag, or attribute" ui could be changed to work like find-as-you-type
- the trees can get really deep, and i constantly find myself trying to make the window bigger, and scrolling upward to find the parent of the node i'm looking at. not sure if there's a good way to address this?
- microsoft developer toolbar is interesting: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=E59C3964-672D-4511-BB3E-2D5E1DB91038&displaylang=en having an option to pin/unpin would be cool.
- maybe integrate event spy? https://addons.mozilla.org/extensions/moreinfo.php?id=1100
