This would a great way to improve the debugging experience.

I'd like to chime in with a request I have along the same lines.  On the "Elements" panel, "Event Listener" section, it usually ends up linking to a framework's internal functions as the callback function (assuming you are using a DOM framework to bind events).  This takes me into the middle of library code - not the actual callback I am interested in.

I had an idea for a way to see the more useful function, by keeping track of which functions originally caused the framework to add the event listener.  Essentially a stack trace of the original event binding (really only the file name, and line numbers), that allow me to click into the function that actually caused the DOM framework to add the event listener.

Please check out a more detailed summary (along with screenshots) on my post here: http://www.briangrinstead.com/blog/devtools-feature-request-show-stack-trace-in-event-listeners

Could there be some overlap here?
