Details

If I do the following:

  1. Open the console directly
  2. Evaluate x = { property: 1}
  3. Expand the object, and add a watchpoint on get
  4. Evaluate x.property
  5. The page seems to pause, the overlay appears and the debugger icon turns green, but the debugger does not open, which is a bit weird?

Do you have any idea why https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/devtools/client/framework/toolbox.js#698 is conditional in the first place? It looks like that check landed in https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/256e3e81fed77b17ea9158786a349698bb59a6ab and it's hard to tell why that might have needed the whitelist.

I can still reproduce the issue.
It should be fixed, but not S2, P2
