[webkit-dev] Getting CC-ed on webkit.org/new-inspector-bug

[Patrick Mueller]

Anything like this, PLEASE!  The worst part, for me, is having to find 
that web inspector URL, and then giving it out to people.  I just posted 
it on Twitter today, in fact.  I cringe whenever I do.

Eclipse also uses something like what Darin suggested, worked great for 
me, back in the day.
