            Bug ID: 221684
           Summary: Do not differentiate between Release and Production
                    via ENABLE_DEVELOPER_MODE
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2

There is some code that sets ENABLE_DEVELOPER_MODE in xcconfigs depending on whether the build is Production or Debug/Release.

It is invalid to create behaviors that are different between these. There is almost no difference in usage scenarios between build modes - either can be produced by CI for validation, either can be used for local testing, etc.

Seeing how it's used for making media elements debuggable, I'm certain that there is a better way to achieve the goal. I don't think that implementing this better way needs to be done as part of this patch.

Not really sure what's up with developer modein WebInspectorUI, seems unused?
