           Summary: The XPath section should be removed and/or moved.
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 420+ (nightly)
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.4
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Web Inspector
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at opendarwin.org
        ReportedBy: hyatt at apple.com


The XPath section in the Web Inspector is terrible as it stands now.  It shows
this massive selector path for many of the typical elements inspected from the
root, and it just looks awful visually.

I don't want to get into a religious debate about XPath vs. CSS selectors, but
realize that for your typical Web developer, displaying the XPath selector is
essentially useless information.

My recommendation would be to remove this or to shunt it into some sort of
geekier details pane that doesn't show by default.
