Bug 1243406 introduced ways to hotreload css and some other resources based on a file watching.
We may be able to expose similar tricks, but more generic to temporary addons.
Looks like it is possible reusing the file-watcher module and making it more generic.
Attached patch patch v1 (obsolete) — Splinter Review
This is a WIP with various debug logs, but it works.
We can surely extend that to web extensions to also map to moz-extension URLs.

Fix it on windows, fix support for toolbox sub documents.
