With Bug 1129488, we'll have a way to retrieve the element under the mouse position (using Shift), which will make it possible to inspect element with pointer-events:none.
But the API we'll be using, nodesFromRect return a whole NodeList of the different elements under the mouse position.
We could use ArrowUp/Down/MouseWheel to "cycle" through the different elements.
This would make it possible to pick element under semi transparent overlays for example
