           Summary: WebInspector.log() function not protected if console
                    not yet created
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Web Inspector
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: pmuellr at yahoo.com

The code for WebInspector.log, in inspector.js, looks like this:

    {
       var msg = new WebInspector.ConsoleMessage(...);
       this.console.addMessage();
    }

Unfortunately, this code can be invoked before this.console is set, and so an
exception will occur.

Suggest we figure out a way to queue the message if the console is not set, and
then do the this.console() on them when it's safe to do so.

Probably means checking for queued messages within this method itself, as well
as doing a setInterval() to check.
