Details

Right now, elements in third-party iframes which are being inspected in the devtools ($0) cannot be accessed/modified unless the devtools context is that third-party iframe. Unfortunately, devtools.inspectedWindow.eval does not support the frameURL option [1], making it impossible to do the same in an add-on.

This (for instance) makes it impossible for the Testcase Reducer addon to reduce a testcase for an element in a third-party iframe, as it cannot pass a reference to the frame or even mark the element in some way for the iframe context to know it is the element that is$0.
