We should probably reword it to "enable browser toolbox" or something.

The problem with "browser toolbox" is that nobody but us would know what it is. Add-on debugging clearly indicates its purpose, and I think MDN has a lot of references to chrome code that chrome debugging makes sense to at least the people who would want to use it (and putting it next to add-on debugging certainly indicates the target demographic).

Maybe "enable chrome and addon toolbox"? Because "enabling debugging" implies *this* toolbox (people inside mozilla didn't even know there was a separate toolbox).

Yes, I think that does sound better. How about "enable chrome and add-on debugging toolbox" to keep the phrase closer to current docs and what some people have been used to?
