I actually assumed an enumeration when I read the suggestion, so I suggested a
string.

I think it should be easy enough. What I'm more worried about is the controls
inside the inspector, that is WebKit doesn't support native elements to the
extend the inspector would need it. So maybe it would actually be more useful
to investigate that and for instance if the toolbar and statusbar had a
(mostly) native appearance, we could avoid such workarounds.
