User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_11_6) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/52.0.2743.116 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce:

1. Developer toolbar: listen 6000
2. Connect from IntelliJ Idea using Firefox Remote configuration (Host: localhost, Port: 600)
3. Accept Incoming Connection  [click (OK)]
4. Refresh webpage (contains javascript with debugger; statement)
5. Open Inspector (Tools -> Web Developer -> Inspector)


Actual results:

Now navigating within the DOM in Inspector does highlight the elements of the page, but clicking on 'Pick an element from the page' in the top left corner of the Inspector window (just to the left of the [+Inspector] tab) and moving mouse over the page does not highlight the individual elements in the Inspector.


Expected results:

After letting the javascript to run the 'Pick an element from the page' works as expected , i.e. pointing to a piece of the page highlights it in the DOM in Inspector.
