In nightly, you can get the PID of a tab by hovering over the title. It would be useful to have something equivalent for OOP-iframes. This really helps for connecting a debugger or forcing a process crash.

One option could be to add an entry or something to the 'This Frame" menu in the context menu from right-clicking within an <iframe>.

I think the This Frame menu is a perfect place for this kind of thing.

Feel like taking this on Abdoulaye? I think it'd be a matter of passing Services.appinfo.processID through the ContextMenuChild to the ContextMenuParent, and adding an entry to the "This Frame" submenu.

Yes, I will look into this. Thank you!
