Loading the entire Main.html page for replay and model tests is overkill and will make the tests too slow. Instead we should load a separate Test.html (which could be generated) that only loads models and controllers.

For WebKit2, we can create a new WebInspector message called createInspectorPageForTest() which navigates the page to a different URL. This can be called by the WK2 inspector client whenever InspectorController::isUnderTest() is true, so subsequent calls to showWebInspector() from the test runner just do the right thing.

For WebKit1, we can change the logic in WebInspectorClient::openInspectorFrontend implementations to load a different URL according to the passed-in InspectorController, or we can ask the InspectorController what page to load. A naive implementation might not play nice with bundles and frameworks, however.
