In bug 1259121, we're trying to get rid of XUL as much as possible in the toolbox.
The eyedropper is a tool that uses XUL.

This bug is about migrating from XUL to HTML *inside* the eyedropper frame. It is not about removing XUL to open the eyedropper panel. I will file this separately.

The eyedropper loads the following XUL document in an iframe:
\devtools\client\eyedropper\eyedropper.xul

It should be pretty straightforward to convert this to HTML instead, knowing that the most important element in there is <canvas> which also exists in HTML.

Re-implementing the eyedropper as a highlighter in bug 1262439 means rewriting its UI in HTML anyway, so both things will be done in the same bug.
