Details

As far as I can tell, the filter box in the console is case-sensitive (searching for "warning" filters out "Warning"). It would be nice if this was smart-case-sensitive like most text editors do, basically:

if (filterString === filterString.toLowerCase())
  // case insensitive
else
  // case sensitive

that way I don't *need* to capitalize properly to get to my targets, but I *can* case-match if I want to be more specific (e.g. if I only want "Warning" strings, not "warning" ones)
the problem is the xpath searching which is always case-sensitive. i think there is a bug on this already
see bug 595198 - which may or may not be the same as this bug. is there nuance here?
Nope - looks right to me.
