1293208 - Browser toolbox doesn't refresh automatically when enabling RDM

Status: NEW

(DevTools :: Responsive Design Mode, defect, P3)

Description

[Benoit Chabod [:bigben]]

This is a minor issue, but it's a bit annoying when you're trying to debug UI issues in the RDM.

[Steps to reproduce]:
1. Launch Firefox.
2. Enable the devtools.responsive.html.enabled pref, and restart Firefox if necessary
3. Open the browser toolbox, and look at the current tab <browser> element in the inspector. As you can see, it's empty (remote content).
4. Enable RDM on the current tab
5. Try to inspect RDM elements (the global toolbar, the viewport, etc), using the pointer mode or it will target the content itself. Look at the <browser> element in the toolbox inspector.

[Expected result]:
- The <browser> element should have been filled with RDM code, and you should be able to inspect RDM elements.

[Actual result]:
- The browser toolbox isn't refreshed automatically. You may only use the browser toolbox to debug the RDM if you close it and open it again.
