Details

(mentioned by Harald)

Developers working on Fenix suggested it would be useful to be able to set breakpoints early during Fenix startup. Similar to what we can do with Firefox Desktop when passing --start-debugger-server + --wait-for-jsdebugger.

Technically this means we need to be able to start Fenix from about:debugging and to have a similar logic as the one used on Desktop.

Maybe you know more about this feature request? For instance which files would be useful to debug during the startup of Fenix? We were under the impression there was less startup JS than for Firefox, so we are looking for pointers about the JS files that should be debuggable here.
