           Summary: Web Inspector: Make Time graph on Resources Panel
                    sticky
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: Web Inspector
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: paul.bakaus at gmail.com


When working a lot with the Resources panel of the Web Inspector, I found
myself scrolling down to some specific requests, clicking on them to see their
content and information and then constantly having to scroll up again to
compare them against the timeline. This happens a lot and is quite annoying
over time - one of the workflows that you wouldn't see if you didn't try :)

Two proposals come to my mind:

1) Introduce a tab concept in the resource panel. Clicking on a specific
request opens a new tab within the Resources panel, that can be closed - so you
can always quickly go back to the Time graph, with the nice side effect that
you can easily have multiple requests open and compare them

2) Introduce a new container that wraps the Resources list, effectively
introducing a new scrollbar to scroll between the individual requests. This
would keep the link back to the graphs sticky at all times.

I personally could even see a combination of both, effectively making the
Resources tab a lot more powerful. Let me know what you think!
