The debugging functionally is part of WebKit, not Safari. So you can
use the JavaScript debugger that is part of the Web Inspector in any
WebKit client application. But this does not include JavaScriptCore
client applications. I am surprised to hear that Drosera worked, since
it was similarly tied to WebKit.
Please file a bug requesting this functionality.
