started looking into this a bit.  I think the idea is going to be to do some
logging of events that get fired.  Which you could then lead you to a
javascript handler you could set a breakpoint on.  Not terribly elaborate, but
no extensive stack traces required or anything either.

Place I'm poking around right now is Node::dispatchEvent() in WebCore/dom, but
need to do a bit more debugging to follow the flows.

Haven't though too much about the UI for this.  I think it needs to go in the
Scripts panel somehow.  Perhaps another section on the right showing you the
events and pointers to the source.  

Seems like this will need to be an opt-in scenario, which is fine as you prolly
won't be needing to use the function all the time.  opt-in per session.
