I don't know much about this tool but that it is running on Eclipse and communicates with V8 debugger protocol over sockets.

I think debugger functionalities are common enough that if you are going to provide some other protocol support for Web Inspector, this should cover rather the same functionality.

Example things that we need that WebInspector API provide us with are:
 - access to page's scripts information (on request)
 - current stack frame and backtrace information
 - interface for evaluating expressions
 - modification of a single breakpoint (enable/disable, skips, condition)

These above things are not available currently or obtaining this information is complicated (in particular, usually needs caching particular information - they can be only caught by events, but not accessed when there is a need to obtain them).

Can you explain me this "Web Inspector way"?
