Details

In theory, today, content scripts should only be visible in the Tab DevTools, where the content script is executing.
Not in the extension DevTools (opened from about:debugging).

We may either ensure we are not showing these errors, or show everything about the content scripts:

  • show them as targets (in console context selector, threads list in the debugger)
  • show theirs sources in the debugger sources tree
  • show all console message and errors in the console (instead of only exception)

The severity field is not set for this bug.
:willdurand, could you have a look please?
