Details

JSTerm (devtools/client/webconsole/jsterm.js) has a sidebar functionality which is used to display object properties when they are clicked in the output view.

The console front-end is being rewritten, but for now we still use JSTerm.
However we do not use its sidebar feature anymore as objects are expanding inline inside the console output.

We could therefore remove this feature from JSTem.
Only, of course, after we've completely migrated from the current console to the new console front-end.

Please no! What about bug 1380501?

This might be implemented directly in the console output, not as part of the jsterm I think.
Or at least, it makes the most sense to me than to have it handled by the jsterm, which should only handle the input
