1605154 - Implement JS execution context selector UI

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(DevTools :: Console, enhancement, P1)

Description

[Jan Honza Odvarko [:Honza] (always need-info? me)]

The Console panel should offer (drop down) selector that can be used to select JS execution context for evaluating JS expressions.

The selector should offer hierarchy of:

• Frames
• Workers

See UX exploration:

Development should happen behind a pref:
devtools.context-switching.enabled

I've documented this under https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Firefox/Experimental_features#Execution_context_selector.

Is the plan for this to get enabled together with all the changes of bug 1605153 (in bug 1605330) or independantly of that?

Thanks Sebastian!

The first step is to enable this on Nightly (bug 1605330 - patch already in review). We'll collect some feedback and then enable in DevEdition. As soon as bug 1605153 is resolved we'll enable on all channels.
